“The Gilded Age” is back for a second season, moving to the coveted Sunday night slot on HBO and Max. Creator and co-showrunner Julian Fellowes (“Downton Abbey”) worked with co-showrunner Sonja Warfield to bring the American period drama to life, incorporating historical accuracy with the help of Dr. Erica Dunbar. Directors included Michael Engler, Salli Richardson Whitfield and Deborah Kampmeier.
Season 1 left off with the threat of an opera house battle — not one involving troops and guns, but socialites and wealth. “The Gilded Age” was peppered with historical events and landmarks, including the introduction of electricity by Thomas Edison, and the Bethesda Terrace in Central Park. The hand of the Statue of Liberty that holds the torch, which was delivered before the rest of the statue from France, served as a date spot, and Clara Barton and the American Red Cross made an important appearance. Fellowes also injected servant-class stories into the ensemble cast,...

The American historical period show, created by Julian Fellowes (“Downton Abbey”), debuted in February 2022 with its first season, which introduced a sprawling ensemble cast. 11 episodes later, a complex web of stories, from the upper-class old New York society, new money arrivals and their staff and servers was woven together.

HBO's "The Gilded Age" is back for season two, and we couldn't be more excited. Created by "Downton Abbey"'s Julian Fellowes, the historical drama depicts the lives of high society in late-1800s New York City. Season one was jam-packed with drama but if you're not a history buff, you might wonder if the show is based on a true story, or if it's totally fiction. While the main characters are made up, the setting and era that the story explores definitely are not.
Here's a breakdown of the true story behind "The Gilded Age."
What Was The Gilded Age?
The last few decades of the 1800s were coined "The Gilded Age." In general, the era was marked by the rapid growth of industry, an influx of European working-class immigrants, and growing wealth inequality. As a result, railroads and related industries exploded, labor accidents rose sharply, and trusts began forming,...

This The Gilded Age review contains spoilers for “Never the New.”
The Gilded Age‘s two-part premiere episode is 90 minutes of epic period drama world-building. In the new HBO series, creator Julian Fellowes melds many of the storytelling tropes and elements that made Downton Abbey a worldwide hit with a less explored decade in American history into a story that delivers on the social drama and historical recreation. Let’s talk about “Never the New, Parts 1 & 2.”
The Gilded Age Setting
The Gilded Age‘s setting is 1882 New York City, a city of rapid changes in both society and industry. Thousands of new residents arrive either from other places in America or from around the world. The Industrial Revolution created a new class of millionaires and billionaires to challenge the generational wealth of the oldest families. As these elites gained wealth, the gap between the richest and the poorest Americans increased exponentially.

“The Gilded Age” is a “Downton Abbey” knockoff — but a very good one, set 30 years before Julian Fellowes’ award-sweeping period piece among the Fifth Avenue mansions, cutthroat boardrooms and inky newsrooms of late-19th-century New York City. With a hat-tip to Edith Wharton, the novelist of the era’s aristocracy, the romantic drama pits old money against new, and new cries for individual freedoms against old hierarchies, whether based on class or race or sex. One subtle difference is that while Fellowes’ “Downton” floated on a nostalgic adoration of its status-conscious Englishmen, despite their many drama-driving peccadilloes, it disdained most American characters (except Elizabeth McGovern’s wealthy matriarch). And, this time around for writer-creator Fellowes, there’s a salty bit of disdain for the 19th-century New York aristocrats and their crass nouveau riche rivals.
