You have questions. I have some answers.
I am a big fan of “The Gilded Age” on HBO and getting impatient for the next season. I keep seeing “possible” airdates that have come and gone for Season 3. When is the next season?
About a month ago I mentioned that the drama will be back sometime this year. HBO offered a little more precise date recently: June. And here’s what HBO says is coming: “Following the Opera War, the old guard is weakened and the Russells stand poised to take their place at the head of society. Bertha sets her sights on a prize that would elevate the family to unimaginable heights while George risks everything on a gambit that could revolutionize the railroad industry — if it doesn’t ruin him first. Across the street, the Brook household is thrown into chaos as Agnes refuses to accept Ada’s new position as lady of the house. Peggy meets a handsome doctor from Newport whose family is less than enthusiastic about her career. As all of New York hastens toward the future, their ambition may come at the cost of what they truly hold dear.”
The last time I wrote about “Gilded Age,” I mentioned that fans could find Carrie Coon, who plays Bertha Russell, also at work on the series “The White Lotus.” One reader took issue with that suggestion: “My advice is ‘Don’t!’ Carrie is so far out of character from Bertha Russell. In ‘White Lotus’ Carrie’s character is a heavy drinker and bares her breasts, and frankly I think her acting is subpar. I’ll never look at Bertha the same way again!”
Recently I happened upon a game show in which a large ball rolled down and knocked the player into the water if they answered wrong. What is it called?
