Luke Kirby in Étoile.
Philippe Antonello/Prime Video
Étoile is the latest series from Amy Sherman-Palladino, the creator of Gilmore Girls and The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel. It’s about the wacky goings-on between two prestigious but struggling ballet companies, one in New York, and one in Paris. You’ll see some of your favorite actors from the Gilmore and Maisel universes all speaking that signature rapid-fire, joke-dense patter. But can a comedy set in the rarified world of professional ballet find its audience – and be funny? Étoile is streaming on Prime Video.
