Anyone see the most recent episode? Peggy Scott’s Disneyesque gown at the Brooklyn Bridge party? WTAF?

YES!! What were the costume designers thinking? She looked utterly ridiculous.

Butterflies! WTF. I don't believe that ever existed in that era.

Liked the ending, except the fact that Bertha pimped her daughter to have the coup she desperately wanted.

Love that Ada now has the status above Agnes in the house. So funny!

Bertha pimping Gladys to royalty was telegraphed from as early as the pilot episode.

Nothing like that existed in that era. That was a major misfire.

Ah, I see. Giving it the Bridgerton treatment and agree re dress. Highly implausible.

You mean even more implausible than middle and upper middle class New York City Blacks trying to integrate their schools with poor Irish immigrants and vice versa?

Everything relating to Peggy this season was ridiculous. But the worst was her unaccompanied trip with her married make boss down to Alabama. That would never, ever, ever have happened. Never. It makes the butterfly dress look realistic in comparison.

Sarah Garnet was a real person.

"In 1863, she became the first Black woman principal of a New York City public school, Manhattan Grammar School No. 4, an integrated school that taught both Black and white students."

It is the same creator, but Ada coming into sudden fortune to save the day is exactly like the Lavinia/Matthew will plot in Downton Abbey.

Like DA, it also had a lot of tidy endings in the season finale. If it does get renewed, and any of the main cast don’t want to return, how do you think Julian Fellowes will kill them off in grandiose style, like Cousin Matthew? I’m betting on a runaway, horse-drawn calliope causing havoc.
