Thank you to The Met for dropping the rest of this interview! It made my night! I’ve shared it with my friends who are also fans of The Gilded Age.

I so love this show. For everything that made Downtown great, this is the same but just about as Americanized as it can be. Filled with Capitalist battles and so much excess whilst also highlighting the vast inequalities between those of the non-primary race and gender, as well as the socioeconomic divides between the upstairs and downstairs is truly fascinating. Interesting to think how far we've come since that time, but also clearly not far enough! Such a well done collaborative effort.

Love them all. We need more Gilded seasons please.

[@adazonierczyk730]

Thanks a lot - I'm really enjoying watching this. I'm a huge fan of The Gilded Age, MET and Christine Baranski! PS. greetings from Krakow😍😘

denee and louisa talking and fangirling about denee singing and christine humming at 17:55 was really cute!

Great show, cast, and writing.

They were all SO fun! Great discussion and insight. I've not watched The Guilded Age maybe it's about time I check it out. And I like his comment that Tannhauser is not a good starter opera I'll second that. If you're looking for good starters: Lehar's "The Merry Widow" (where I started, romantic comedy), Puccini's "Il Trittico" (three different one-hour operas bundled together two dramas and a comedy), and Verdi's "Otello" (based on Shakespeare's tragedy).

If you haven’t checked it out yet, it’s a great series, I personally love it!

[@lagincourt]

I came for the set design, furniture, architecture, jewels and stayed for the story-telling, characters and actors!!! You’ll really enjoy it. You’ll binge it!!

[@bandaqueenlove9134]

This was amazing to watch! This is an amazing cast

[@Msbedofroses85]

That was wonderful to watch. My two loves. The metropolitan opera and the gilded age show. Name me a better duo, I’ll wait.

[@donneverae3050]

The only bone I have to pick with this interview is that they didn't have everyone stand so we could see their fantastic ensembles, but maybe that was shown in the first half.

Obsessed

[@LauryneAmanda]

This is the coolest thing ah!!!

[@BellaFirenze]

There is mayhem right now at the Metropolitan Opera.

[@dianaaljadeff2983]

Where is Kelll O Hara?There are only the leading actors

[@fridiux14]

Exactly, they're only doing promotion with the leads. Kelly O'Hara character is not a leading one

[@glassofsherbert995]

Also, he asked the question to everyone but completely ignored Morgan Spector ughhh

[@augie1715]

Hire Graham Norton to do this and it would crackle and spark.

[@msannethr0pe]

Loved hearing them all chat, the interviewer was terrible.

[@BariTone7-v5r]

Funny that they were so fastidious with the costumes and decor being spot on accurate but totally blew all the church vestments in the St. Thomas Church scenes. They were laughable.

[@markkingstone5141]

Graham Berwind is a terrible host. Awkward.

[@ThatsJustMyBabyDaddy]

He tried.

[@markkingstone5141]

@@ThatsJustMyBabyDaddy he got lost in his own notes. He omitted a section and then tried to wedge it in later. He doesn’t even know the difference between a spoiler and a spoiler alert. He’s a scion of a real robber baron family who’s on the board of the Met just because of who his family are. If he had a talent for this, it would be different; but as it is, he’s a glaring example of the kind of inherited entitlement that the series itself takes issue with.

[@DontStartWithMe.]

Series 2 was so slow. Barely anything happened. Didn’t deserve series 3. Downton pisses on it
