@@aishaalamoudi599 Yes! That made it extra cool. And the Bridge opening.

I love how George and Bertha have each other's backs. I had worried that the revelation of their ex maid sneaking into George's bed (and nothing happening) was going to seriously damage their marriage...but I'm afraid what may damage it is Bertha possibly using their daughter's hand in marriage to the poor Duke in season 3. I'd hate to see sweet naive Gladys becoming one of the legendary Million Dollar Princesses which happened in that era when New American money married penniless European nobility in order to save those nobility's mansions and reputations

THE MOMENT, Bertha got everything she wanted in seconds, then looked up at her men (George and Larry) and they just looked back at her smilingly, proud of the most important woman in their life in her shining moment.....❤

I was grinning the whole time while watching this finale.

The Russells are really captivating and nuanced characters. Because just by observing their morally ambiguous aspirations and methods of climbing society, We really cannot categorize them as "good or bad", "villains or heroes" but we all root for them nonetheless!!

WHAT PLEASURE IT GIVES ME........go on Bertha!!!

This was a delicious victory for Bertha. You could see her eyes lighting up as she savoured the flavour of triumph on her tastebuds. The perfect finale.

In the second season, i finally saw that Russells are Vanderbilts. Everything Bertha did here - the ball where Carrie Astor was uninvited the last minute, the Opera battle - is what Alva Vanderbilt did to establish herself in High Society. And it will conclude in selling(sorry) marrying off Gladys to Duke in exchange for title (while she was secretly engaged to her sweetheart). Just like they did with poor Consuelo...

I see what they're doing; they're going to play the Consuelo Vanderbilt (original Dollar Princess) story in Gladys. Gladys will fall in love with a man but be pushed by her mom to marry the Duke who accepts for a massive dowry to keep his estate afloat. Consuelo agrees under duress after her mom falls "psychosomatically" ill over her rejection of the Duke. It will be a depressing loveless marriage, but they eventually divorce later in life.

She did: this show is based heavily on the real-life Alva Vanderbilt, who would've been 30 years old in 1883. The storyline of Consuelo Vanderbilt is a very sad one.

I didn’t like the dress either. I’m Lenient on execution because the costume department, though talented, isn’t afforded the time to properly make historical garments. Personally, it’s the color and the silhouette, I understand that the blue was an attempt to make her stand out, but the dress doesn’t hit the same in the blue, as it does in its signature black and white. To add the blues did not contrast enough to give it that pop. Lastly the late 1890s-1900 silhouette. It was an attempt to make Bertha ahead of her time/ a trendsetter, to signify her rise to New York’s new queen bee, but since the dress is nearly 15 years ahead, and the silhouette is sorta similar to the natural form period, which the trend does wraps up by early 1883. It makes her look dated rather than ahead of her time. Being that the shelf bustle is beginning to rise is popularity. A bustle, like the one they gave Agnes during that dressmaker scene in season 1, would’ve made for better character development and symbolism in my opinion.

Did Turner (now Mrs. Winterton) think the Central Box would be hers? She already had prime seating on the First Tier, so why the sad face? Was she that delusional?
