The Gilded Age (New Julian Fellows HBO Drama)

[ZenGiraffe]

I remember the butlers because people say their names fifteen times in every scene they're in. The society women are The Aunts, new money Mrs Russell, the slaggy one nobody likes, dead husband one, and some others who turn up a lot but I don't remember.

TRAIN DADDY
CLOCK TWINK
THE WASP

The only three names you need

 

[ButterTart]

Who's The Wasp?

UPDATE: Mrs Russell has knocked Nathan Lane bandy but the child footman is making a right bollocks of the Aunts' luncheon.

Oh, the bollock faced one who I thought had been fired but that turned out to be a different character

 

[ButterTart]

Also who the FUCK is Aurora? People keep talking about her? Have we MET her?

Oh you'll become familiar with her in time (I had to google her)

It’s absolutely brilliant. The way they can wring an episode’s drama from a butler being discovered moonlighting at another house, yet that same episode starts with the aftermath of a violent train crash and it’s paid barely any mind after the first five minutes

Five men dead in a train disaster is clearly a narrative dead end but a SPOON on the table at LUNCHEON? That’s a three-episode story arc.

Oh God, it’s not going to be like Downton where they chucked in a bit of drama every couple of seasons by putting Mr Bates in jail?

 

[ButterTart]

The chef is actually from KANSAS

This is some real Line of Duty shit.

This confusion happens a lot

 

[ButterTart]

The way Mrs Russell looks like COMPLETE SHIT at her own ball

 

[ButterTart]

The way EVERYONE looks like complete shit at this ball they've been working towards for months

 

[Lucille]

The DISGUSTING FASHIONS are a real highlight of mine!

 

[ButterTart]

Considering most of the series was spent visiting dressmakers, it seems odd that Mrs R would elect to wear a harem unitrouser and as much wallpaper as she could shoplift from B&Q to witness the culmination of her life's work.

And that's one of her BETTER FASHIONS!

[Lucille]

[hyperwoof]

So new money and entitled. Just like that terrible Bertha Russell.

 

[straightorbroken]

One of the best and most ridiculous shows of all time. God I've missed it.

 

[Music]

Oh I cannot WAIT.

[ZenGiraffe]

[Lucille]

He’s being a whore again!

 

[straightorbroken]

I would jump off a balcony (or pretend to for the cameras) for him.

How on earth has this absolute knob got Christine Baranski for his podcast?



I've not yet had it in me to watch.

It's explained within the first 60 seconds - Julian Fellowes is the mutual friend.

 

[FannyFaudrey]

I endured it because I love her so much. He’s so awful though, even trying to interrupt her when she’s talking about the saddest moment in her life.

 

[PercyPig]

I presume someone's already told him what searching for "Rosebud" on PornHub might return?

 

[Lucille]

Our silly gay show is back November 1st

Winter is coming

 

[Lucille]

Wasp eater slutty maid and the faggot are plotting to take down HIGH SOCIETY

 

[ZenGiraffe]
