The American Gilded Age is a period of big economic change, great conflict between the old ways and brand new systems, where big fortunes are made and lost; in 1882, young Marian Brook moves from rural Pennsylvania to New York City after the death of her father to live with her aunts Agnes van Rhijn and Ada Brook; accompanied by Peggy Scott, an aspiring writer seeking a fresh start, Marian inadvertently becomes enmeshed in a social war between one of her aunts, a scion of the old money set, and her rich neighbors, a railroad tycoon and his wife, George and Bertha Russell; exposed to a world on the brink of the modern age, Marian must choose if she will follow the established rules of society or forge her own path.

Uniformly terrible and likely to outlive us all.

It takes a gaggle of great actors to sell a show as objectively ridiculous as The Gilded Age, which is entering its fourth season and seems destined to continue forever.

3.5/4

Maybe it’s more playful than profound, more fizz than substance. But four seasons into a run I don’t want to see end, this wickedly well acted series (deep bows to Carrie Coon) is also totally irresistible.

Watching the privileged scramble to keep their lives from falling apart is, as ever, a thoroughly irresistible pleasure.

'The Gilded Age' promises to be even more entertaining than the previous ones, culminating many of the plot twists that have been brewing throughout the series. [Full review in Spanish]

The Gilded Age remains one of the most well-executed primetime dramas on television and hits the ground running with some massive (spoiler-y) developments in Episode 1!

While it's fiction, many of its characters and stories inspired by real lives and events of the guilded age in NYC and its stellar cast is stacked with Broadway stars (who have collectively won just short of 3 dozen TONY Awards- as of Nov of 2026) this show is a MUST WATCH!

I'm coming into this series late, but giving it a try. It's ok so far. Love the way it looks. No quite Downton Abby but so far a fun watch.

Love Love Love! The Russels will survive the building of America! This tale detail is a great merger of fact and great fiction. All Americans can relate to this tale of America’s history, no matter what state the person identifies with!!!
