‘The Gilded Age’ Season 3 Review: The Best Season Yet
SHARE

“The Gilded Age” has always drawn inspiration from the works of Edith Wharton, setting its narrative in the upper crust of New York society during the late 19th century. Both the novelist’s literary legacy and the HBO drama delve into the complexities of the elite, exploring societal frictions and personal struggles.

In its initial seasons, “The Gilded Age” focused primarily on a few storylines, often centered around characters of color. However, the show lacked the grandeur and tragedy reminiscent of Wharton’s most famous works like “House of Mirth” and “The Age of Innocence.” Season 2 saw Agnes van Rhijn face financial ruin only to have her wealth quickly restored by her sister Ada, resulting in a somewhat predictable narrative arc.

Season 3 marks a significant shift for “The Gilded Age,” striking a balance between drama and lightheartedness. Peggy, a budding journalist, embarks on a new romantic journey with Dr. William Kirkland, immersing herself in the Black elite of Newport, Rhode Island. This storyline not only stays true to historical accuracy but also addresses the show’s past structural flaws by giving Peggy a more prominent role in the narrative.

Meanwhile, the Russell family, nouveau riche and entangled in a web of love, money, and status, undergoes its own set of challenges. Larry’s relationship with Marian and Gladys’ infatuation with a peer highlight the complexities of marriage during that era, injecting a youthful intensity into the series. Gladys’ involvement with the Duke brings the show back to its roots, drawing parallels to the American “dollar princesses” who married into European aristocracy.

As the narrative unfolds, characters like Aurora Fane face personal turmoil, shedding light on the harsh realities of societal stigmas and rigid hierarchies. Despite its glamorous setting and recognizable figures like J.P. Morgan, “The Gilded Age” delves deeper into social issues and personal struggles, offering a nuanced portrayal of the era.
