Bluray Review - The Gilded Age: The Complete Second Season

About the Series
The American Gilded Age was a period of significant economic change, conflict between old and new systems, and fortunes made and lost. Season two of THE GILDED AGE begins on Easter 1883, with Bertha Russell's bid for a box at the Academy of Music rejected. Over eight episodes, Bertha challenges Mrs. Astor and the old system to gain a foothold in Society. George Russell battles a growing union at his Pittsburgh steel plant. Marian secretly teaches at a girls' school, while Ada starts a new courtship, to Agnes's disapproval. In Brooklyn, the Scott family heals from a shocking discovery, and Peggy becomes an activist through her work at the NY Globe.

Includes all 8 episodes from season 2 plus over 20 pieces of bonus content including:

• Behind the Gilded Curtain Featurette
• Character Featurettes - Agnes, Ada, Bertha, George, Marian, and Peggy
• The Black Elite: Then and Now Featurette
• The Real Gilded Age - Carrie, Cynthia, and Morgan
• Choose Your Side - Carrie, Christine, Cynthia, Denée, Morgan and Julian

My Take on the Series

Season two of The Gilded Age continues to captivate with its rich portrayal of late 19th-century American society, blending history and drama in a visually stunning series. Beginning in Easter 1883, the show explores the ongoing clash between old and new money, with Bertha Russell determined to break into the exclusive high society despite the resistance of Mrs. Astor and her circle. The eight episodes are filled with great moments, from labor unrest at George Russell’s steel plant to Peggy Scott’s evolution into an activist.

The series shines with exceptional performances and impeccable period details. The costumes are dazzling, and the set designs transport viewers back to the Gilded Age. The storytelling remains engaging, with well-paced drama and compelling character development. Each episode leaves you eager for the next, and the season ends on a thrilling cliffhanger that sets up high expectations for season three.

This Blu-ray set is packed with extras, making it a must-have for fans of historical dramas.
