is anyone watching..............

April 7, 2022 7:04am CST
The Gilded Age ,its supposed to be like Downton Abbey but set in America .Hope it gets better but I think one of the actresses has woodworm (Carrie Coon) Also starring merlyl Streeps daughter who is marginally better but miscast as an 18 year old .The man with the beard is also terrible and when the two are together its just atrocious . Im carrying on with it iin the hope of it getting better but I dont think Maggie Smith needs to worry on the acting awards

You've made me want to have a look at the show simply because of your descriptions.

probably on you tube now - the lady hotel owner doesnt leave the correct gap between conversations so it sounds like she is reading a script (yes i know she is lol but we are not supposed to know )

@58lordstreet Thanks for the link. It's quite intriguing watching a badly made series.

in theory it should be good written by the same person as downton abbey , but seems a little off so far

I've seen the Gilded Age in the listings but haven't watched it. I used to follow a whole bunch of programs; but that got to be too much. Now I just watch a half-dozen on a regular basis.

I hate when I start a show and it isn’t as good as expected. Sometimes I keep going too. Hopefully it gets better for you. I’ve never heard of woodworm I’ll have to look that up.
16 Apr 22
really you dont have woodworm in usa , its like termites I suppose

I think I watched it. Sounds familiar but I must have been as impressed as you are not to remember much about it.

Why do you think that Meryl Streep's daughter is miscast.? I would like to see that show.
@Kandae11 (55162)

@58lordstreet Some 30 year-Olds don't look their real age. So you are thinking that she looks 30 instead of 18.
