The Gilded Age was created and written by Julian Fellowes, arguably most known for creating the ITV series Downton Abbey (2010–2015). It is a historical drama series set against the backdrop of the eponymous era of American history (roughly between 1877 and 1900). The plot follows the escalating conflict between the established van Rhijn-Brook family and their new-money neighbors, the Russell family. The series also sheds light on how various social and economic tiers, including the upper and upper middle classes, the Black upper class, and the domestic workers, interact with each other.
The official synopsis for The Gilded Age reads:
“It’s 1882 and the Gilded Age is in full swing when Marian Brook, a young orphaned daughter of a Southern general, moves in with her rigidly conventional aunts in New York City. With the help of Peggy Scott, an African-American woman masquerading as her maid, Marian gets caught up in the dazzling lives of her rich neighbors as she struggles to decide between adhering to the rules or forging her own path.”
