The gilded age christmas special finale is either George overdosing or George shooting Larry. I refuse to believe everyone will make it out of a Julian Fellowes christmas special alive.
the gilded age truly compels my TV-sex-dulled Gen Z brain to appreciate good old-fashioned beauty: a fade to black, loose hair, and scandalously exposed collarbones. The mystery of unshown...

@NaomiSam00 she's passed sybil, she's passed mary... I'm afraid there's only one sister's character-arch left for her to follow and it's not promising...
