The Guilded Age needed more of this and less of... well, everything else it did, honestly.

i’m watching the gilded age (tv show) since bridgerton got me into the old timey shit again 😔😔

Given the fact that on the Gilded Age he introduces an already established gay couple who remain together throughout the series so far, I don’t think it’s that he’s more comfortable writing same-sex relationships for film so much as that he’s changed what gay stories he’s writing in the past few years, but for Downton he’s written movies not TV.

Huh. I'm kind of interested in what their relationship dynamic is like. At the same time, Fellowes writing about the lives of rich people is something I have had Plenty of. It's still disappointing that Thomas has gleaned so little from Fellowes change of heart.

The Gilded Age and the Gold Standard | Thomas J. DiLorenzo

The great era of economic growth in the USA and the lying scoundrals. It was era of price deflation, higher wages, and higher saving and increased capital investment.

Almost all of my favorite shows (Rise, Dark Crystal, Inside Job, Infinity Train) were cancelled…BY NETWORKS! Not by writers! Heck! The writers WANTED TO KEEP GOING! To keep making their characters, their art, and their stories told.

Writers are not the problem. Artists are not the problem. They almost never are! Corporations are the problem. Execs are the problem. So many great shows get sabotaged by their own studio (I.E. Rise of the TMNT) and then the studio turns around and acts as though it was the lack of fan engagement. It’s why I tend to watch shows that were made years in the past. They created the problem and now they’re scapegoating writers.

If studios gave up on every show that had a lackluster first season that didn’t pull in the numbers…we wouldn’t have had classics like the Office, OR Parks and Recreation, OR Brooklyn 99. It took a while for those shows to get good.

Writers WANT to create! It’s the studios/corporations that are the problem. It’s A.I. art that is the problem!

Reward writers! Reward artists! Support them! Not the big company’s that don’t respect them!

And don’t ever give up the fight for what you want!
