I love The Gilded Age‼️‼️‼️😍 I love that real facts and real people are incorporated into the show. It's interesting to watch how big names like J.P. Morgan and Rockefeller starting out and not being accepted yet by "old New York" people. I like seeing how New York came to be after the Civil War. I also love that I get see African Americans who actually had servants and did well for themselves. I love that I get the feel for how Downton Abbey was but in the American way.

I'm enthralled. Casting and writing superb, beautifully authentic! Cousin Oscar is a devilish breath of fresh air. Young Gladys Russell looks like a Sargent painting come to life. Hard to single out any one particular aspect in such a lavish feast, but I enjoy the relationship between Peggy and Aunt Agnes. They are well-matched. And wonderful to see Simon Jones (Bridey on Brideshead Revisited) as the Van Rijn's butler.

It's woke when diversity is FORCED into a narrative. But in this case, the black elite was an integral part of the Gilded Age due to the Reconstruction Era that preceded it. I think anyone that considers Peggy's role as woke does not know the context of history at that time.

I thought the first episode got off to a somewhat slow start. And, I kept seeing details that seemed to echo Downton Abbey. However, I have watched all episodes and I'm hooked, and am enjoying the series very much. While I think The Gilded Age is very good, I do think that Downton packed a stronger wallop. By the way, as a person interested in interior design, I have to say that the furniture and room settings are fantastic!

I am watching it and enjoying it. The metropolitan setting reminds me more of Upstairs Downstairs than it does of Downton Abbey. Upstairs Downstairs also mixed fictional characters with real people. The sense of old money clashing with new is fascinating as is the 1880s New York setting.
