CAROLINE AARON 'I DON'T WANT THE SHOW TO END!'

Working on The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel has been a career highlight for the actress

Think of any major American TV series over the past few decades and chances are character actress Caroline Aaron featured in at least one episode. After a career spent making short, sharp impressions, the veteran of the stage and screen found a home as a regular in The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, which is filming its fifth and final season. "I don't want it to tells end," the 69-year-old Woman's Day. "This has been so special."

You play Midge's (Rachel Brosnahan) former mother-in-law, the other Mrs. Maisel, who is marvellous in her own way. If you had to give her an adjective, what would it be?

I would say The Unfiltered Mrs. Maisel. Whatever she thinks comes right out of her mouth! I don't think she's contemplative.

You've done a lot of TV work, but is this the longest you've stayed on one show?

Yes, absolutely. It was never intended to be that way. I was supposed to be a pop-in and pop-out, but this is such a wonderful show and it kept growing and growing, so I've been so delighted to be hijacked by this team to stay with them for five years.
