About
You’ll likely enjoy The Gilded Age if you like grand period drama about old money versus new money in Downton Abbey; Not for you if you want a fast start, deeper character connections, or you prefer something less focused on society and money.
Pros: lavish costumes; rich society drama; strong acting | Cons: rushed early episodes; shallow character work; uneven writing
