In the 1880-90s, servants experienced a transition in how they viewed their work. Being “in service” was no longer considered “a lifelong career”; instead, servants began to look around & wonder “why can’t I have a piece of this pie?”#TheGildedAge #history https://t.co/M7NMo8WkUc

If #TheGildedAge intends to have Mrs. Russell have a "These tricks shall rue the day!" breakdown in every episode, let it be known that I am 100% here for it. ONE HUNDRED PERCENT.

Another great line from #TheGildedAge
The show is set in 1882, so Sherman’s march was 18 years earlier - likely the year the young characters were born, but well within the memory of their parents, aunts, and uncles. #Twitterstorians

The scorned lady in the corner having a giggle at that shit being shut down is a mood #TheGildedAge

Me he quedado prendada de los primeros episodios de la serie de época #TheGildedAge de HBOMAX 😍
Todo de ella me gusta ❤ y en especial los personajes femeninos.

@hahamama @Collider Oh and it’s not my article, just tweeting out articles that I find interesting as I’m researching. ✍🏽

To help you make the most out of Julian Fellowes tour of the 19th century New York upper-class, here’s a list to all the main characters in the show’s universe and the actors that portray them. | ⁦@Collider⁩ #TheGildedAge #TheGildedAgeHBO #NYCHistory https://t.co/U3CC7yyMzv

@hahamama @Collider Agreed that those statements were a bit TV/Film driven. Most non-Broadway lovers are not clued into the culture.

[Gilded History @Gilded_History]

@hahamama @Collider Thanks for the corrections! Good to get history straight.

[Patricia M. Lawrence @hahamama]

@Gilded_History @Collider Also, nothing to do with history, but many of the actors in the show may be not as known in the tv and film world, but are Broadway vets. After two massive B'way roles, I don't think that makes Denée Benton "a relative newcomer to the acting world."

[Patricia M. Lawrence @hahamama]

@Gilded_History @Collider Some factual inaccuracies in this article. The Mrs. Astor (or "THE Mrs. Astor," lol) played by Donna Murphy was NOT the Mrs. Astor on the Titanic. That was her daughter in law.

[Dr. Kimberly A. Hamlin @ProfessorHamlin]

Yes, I am biased BUT really is there a more interesting and relevant period than the Gilded Age and Progressive Era?? (I know every #Twitterstorian thinks this about their era but STILL :) Just check out this list of January essays rounded up by @shgape! https://t.co/JLbEkM5bCd

Co-Stars #LouisaJacobson and #DenéeBenton on #TheGildedAge, their characters' friendship, the effect of race and privilege, the show's strong sense of collaboration & more: https://t.co/E4FMYbf5QD

I'm really enjoying Cynthia Nixon in #TheGildedAge so far. Its good to remember she can actually act 😂😂

[Javi Trulove @JaviTrulove]

The Second Episode of #TheGildedAge was better in terms of Costuming. But my winner is Miss Peggy. I LOVE ALL her ensembles.
