In one episode George is in his office arguing with someone and he exclaims, "I don't care about Sandusky!"

Can anyone lead me to the episode and elucidate the context?

I watched the show clean through, and I began wondering how Cora Crawley (at that time, Levinson) and her family (especially her mother) would have fared against Agnes Van Rijhn, Caroline Astor and the rest. Would Martha have even met the muster of Bertha Russell? What do you all think?

Apparentky, Harry Richardson bas unfollowed everyone and everything Gilded Age related on Instagram. He is also apparently in New Zealand instead of filming episode 8. As a Larry fan, I should be quite worried, shouldn't I?

I'm coming into this from a very fanfiction heavy community of a long running crime serial (three guesses which one lol), The fanfiction circle I ran in was mainly queer, obsessed with milfs, and big into Y/N fics. Is there a similar circle here?

I'm writing a fanfiction and falling down a rabbit hole. Were the artists that were popular usually from new or old money?

I love the series because it's dramatic, but it's low stakes. I like the build up and the consequences being minimal but real. What do you like about the show?

I mean, she's probably only late 20s, and Larry fell for a much older widow. I just wonder why she didn't go after Larry, have the unexpected pregnancy, and run with it? Of course she wanted George, EVERY woman wants him. But if she was smart she'd go after the lowest hanging fruit, which would be Larry. Tsk tsk Edith, you really aren't a smart lady.... and now you're married to an 80 year old.

Any tips, tricks, or things you wish you’d known ahead of time?

Gladys was out since the end of season 1, while the Duke is introduced somewhere in season 2, with Bertha meeting him a little later on. And she wants him for Gladys imedietely.

But what if there had been no Duke, then what did she want for Gladys. It's not like she could have predicited that she'd meet a Duke who is fairly young and need to marry a wealthy heiress.

But she doesn't seem to like any potential suitors for Gladys, even though some of them were old money.

The original Agnes has died today. Family announced it. No cause of death. Tangentially related to here but as I say, to me, Agnes is just Violet with a different accent but the same sporadic money woes. To quote Violet: Isn't it sad?

Things you think really could (or will) happen and some reasons.

I have three:

Gladys escapes her mother's plans by eloping with another man (likely Billy, maybe Jack. But somebody.) I have no good reason for this one, just a feeling it's a logical out for Gladys' forced marriage.

The last shot of S3 is Bertha alone, George having done a Rhett Butler in the preceding scene and left her because of her behaviour over Gladys. It's the kind of cliffhanger that sets up a subsequent season and is a logical twist for the wide gap between the Russells on what they want for Gladys.

Larry and Marian are engaged by end of season. It will need a happy note if the power couple are estranged, which I am certain they will be. Bertha's so strong willed and George is so strong willed and they are cross purposes.

I have a good feeling them becoming each other’s love interest will be the perfect plot twist this season!

You’ll see. They have been secretive about Jack and Gladys’ S4 storyline so far, we might be in for a huge surprise.

The writers knew the viewers will hate the Duke storyline and wanted Gladys to find real love and Jack is a hopeless romantic. We cheer 🥰

Was looking for something to watch, I knew nothing about it but I thought I'd give this show a try. I watched the entirety of the first episode, thought to myself, "okay, I'm in." I went to go watch episode 2 before I realized that I had somehow watched S1E9 in its entirety without realizing. I have no idea how this happened and I don't even know where to go from here.

After watching the show numerous times, I've always loved the interactions between Ada and Marian. They're so wonderful and so touching. Ada sees Marian as the daughter she never had and she's more supportive of her. Marian can also let her guard down with Ada, moreso than with Agnes. It fills my heart to see such a bond.

Do you know any series that are similar/ have a similar vibes to the Gilded Age? thank you!

I am now officially tired of waiting to know when we get our next round of the show. Seems to me shooting is over, surely?
