It’s 1882 and the Gilded Age is in full swing when Marian Brook, a young orphaned daughter of a Southern general, moves in with her rigidly conventional aunts in New York City. With the help of Peggy Scott, an African-American woman masquerading as her maid, Marian gets caught up in the dazzling lives of her rich neighbors as she struggles to decide between adhering to the rules or forging her own path.

"The jury is still out on this show but so far I have liked it. We shall see what season2 brings."

"Old money families duke it out with the nouveau riche of the Gilded Age, often resulting in both sides getting their just desserts. Each episode you'll be dying to see what ridiculous schemes the greedy characters get into. There are storylines about household staffs (ala "Downton Abbey") and an upper-middle class reporter, but their stories pale in comparison to the petty drama of the rich. The true star of the series is Carrie Coon as the ruthless social climber Bertha Russsel.

"Another great HBO/Max show that I binged over the holidays while sick in bed. Always cool to see period pieces."

"America’s Downton Abbey. Scenery and costumes alone make it worth the watch but additionally the characters, dialogue and adherence to the time period are perfection! Can not wait for season 2!"

"Originally meant to be a prequel to Downton Abbey but that was scrapped for whatever reasons. I just know I love it so far! I've always been a fan of the whole "upstairs downstairs" kind of show. Not sure how much of the servants lives we'll get to follow but it does hint toward it being at least a little bit. Plus, it comes from Julian Fellowes so if course it's great! "
