[quote=Anonymous]I love this show. My teen daughter and I are watching Downton Abbey, and in that show they give equal weight to the kind of trivial interpersonal problems people have and the larger, life changing, world changing issues. In the Gilded Age it’s like someone decided to challenge themselves to make a period drama that focuses only on the most trivial storylines and see if they can still make a watchable show. And I think they pull it off. The episode where Mrs Russell doesn’t get invited to the fundraising event, and Mr Russell goes and buys out the whole thing and shuts it down is so great. Peggy is nearly dying, and the racist doctor won’t see her, but the whole thing is just a lead up to a romance, and that’s the only thing the show spends any time on. It’s perfect. I love it.[/quote]
