Well, it has been an extremely long wait, but HBO is finally bringing us the second season of Julian Fellowes' wonderful and highly entertaining costume drama GILDED AGE which will land October 29th with eight new episodes set again during the Gilded Age
in America, a period of immense economic change, of great conflict
between the old ways and brand new systems and of fortunes made and
lost. Over
in the United Kingdom, the new season will start a day later, October
30th on Sky Atlantic! Today you can check out the insanely gorgeous and super glitzy costumes in the brand new trailer that has been released today filled with lavish gowns and even more lavish sets, it is splendour all around:
THE SECOND SEASON begins
on Easter morning 1883, with the news that Bertha Russell’s (Carrie
Coon) bid for a box at the Academy of Music has been rejected.
Throughout the season, Bertha challenges Mrs. Astor (Donna Murphy) and
the old system and works to not only gain a foothold in Society but to
potentially take a leading role in it. George Russell (Morgan Spector)
takes on his own battle with a growing union at his steel plant in
Pittsburgh. In the Brook House, Marian (Louisa Jacobson) continues her
journey to find her way in the world secretly teaching at a girls’
school while much to everyone’s surprise Ada (Cynthia Nixon) begins a
new courtship. Of course, Agnes (Christine Baranski) approves of none of
it.
In Brooklyn, the Scott family begins to heal from a shocking discovery,
and Peggy (Denée Benton) taps into her activist spirit through her work
with T. Thomas Fortune at the NY Globe. You can check out who has joined the second season cast in our previous post. Harry Richardson, Blake Ritson, Nathan Lane all return.
First reactions on this one are mixed, from some praising its lavish looks to some comparing it to watching the paint dry, but you will be able to judge for yourself as new nine episode historical series THE GILDED AGE coming from Julian Fellowes is coming to HBO Monday January 24th and then the next day to Sky in UK as well.
It begins in 1882, with young Marian Brook (Louisa Jacobson), the
orphaned daughter of a Union general who moves into the New York City

Baranski) and Ada Brook (Cynthia Nixon). Marian inadvertently becomes
caught up in a social war between one of her aunts, a scion of the
