Train daddy’s return is nigh! The Gilded Age Season 3 will soon be back on HBO and MAX, reuniting us with the Russells, Van Rhijns, Scotts, and servants who dote on them all!
The Gilded Age was created by Downton Abbey mastermind Julian Fellowes and tracks the petty squabbles and massive industry upheavals that defined life for the mega rich in 1880s New York. Carrie Coon and Morgan Russell star as married couple Bertha and George Russell, a pair whose passion for each other is only matched by their ruthless ambition for more, more, more. The Russells live across the street from old New York society grand dame Agnes Van Rhijn (Christine Baranski), her recently widowed sister Ada (Cynthia Nixon), their beautiful niece Marian (Louisa Jacobson), and Agnes’s clever secretary Peggy Scott (Denée Benton).
The Gilded Age Season 1 saw Bertha Russell’s upward battle to assume her rightful place in New York society. In Season 2, she became the city’s most important woman, thanks to her successful crusade to build the Metropolitan Opera House. In The Gilded Age Season 3, Bertha has her eyes set on making a match between her lovely daughter Gladys (Taissa Farmiga) and the Duke of Buckingham (Ben Lamb).
So what’s next for these fabulously catty and fabulously wealthy characters? Will Bertha once again prevail? Will Marian find a happily ever after with new beau Larry (Harry Richardson)? Will plucky footman Jack (Ben Ahlers) sell his alarm clock?!? Here’s everything you need to know about when new episodes of The Gilded Age come out…

During a recent press conference, creator Julian Fellowes confirmed even he doesn’t know if the show is coming back.
“You have as much idea as we do, that I will say,” Fellowes said, when asked. “I always love it though, as I was saying yesterday, you always ask these questions, knowing you’re not going to get a decent answer. And I never really quite understand why, unless it’s just the fun of us saying we’re not going tell you! But we don’t know either at the moment.”

The Gilded Age Season 2 dealt with the Opera Wars, a real historic event where members of New York society who were deemed “New Money” created the Metropolitan Opera House when they were denied boxes in the cramped Academy of Music. The season ends with Bertha triumphantly opening the Met with the Duke of Buckingham as her guest. Her next goal is obviously to match him with Gladys.
Elsewhere, Oscar Van Rhijn (Blake Ritson) discovers that Maude Beaton (Nicole Brydon Bloom) was a con artist and all of the money he invested on her tips is gone. Agnes is ruined, but the family is saved when it’s revealed that Ada’s deceased husband Luke (Robert Sean Leonard) was secretly wealthy.
Peggy decides to leave her post at T. Thomas Fortune’s (Sullivan Jones) newspaper because he’s married and plans to write a novel. Meanwhile Marian and Larry discover they are in love and kiss. Oh, and Jack is going to partner with Larry to sell his alarm clock patent.
