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

railroad tycoon and his ambitious wife, George and Bertha Russell, plus
their son Larry.
BERTHA RUSSELL
Played by Carrie
Coon, she is determined to use her money and position to
break into a polite society that resists change at every turn. She is ambitious and desperate to join the cream of society and not entirely likeable. She enjoys egalitarian marriage with George.

AGNES VAN RHIJN
Played by Christine Baranski, she is a proud and stubborn old money Dutch-American socialite clinging to the old values of New York City's elite. She is the pillar of the established upper class and a sort of a snob.
MARIAN BROOK

ADA BROOK
Played by Cynthia Nixon, she is optimistic, unmarried sister of Agnes and reliant upon her charity. She is middle aged, but has a heart of a girl. She is excited about the arrival of her niece, as she has no children of her own.
PEGGY SCOTT
Played by Denée Benton, she is a young ambitious writer returning home after finishing her education. She is one of the first people that Marian meets upon her arrival in New York. Peggy does not care what the society thinks.
TOM RAIKES
Played by Australian hunkster and actor Thomas Cocquerel! He is a very charming and decent, young lawyer from Pennsylvania who is smitten with Marian, despite Agnes’ disapproval. He moves to New York to be close to her and work there.
OSCAR VAN RHIJN
Played by Blake Ritson who is well known to the fans of historical and period set shows and dramas.The prodigal son of Agnes is a man about town with a few secrets of his own. He is secretly in a gay relationship with his best friend Adams.
LARRY RUSSELL
Played by Poldark's Harry Richardson. Having just returned from Harvard, the debonair son of George and Bertha is starting to meet all the right people while he tries to sort the path he will take with his life. He actually wants to be an architect.
