HBO announced today that The Gilded Age has been renewed for a fourth season. The news comes with two episodes remaining in Season 3, which wraps on August 10. The period drama has continued to impress critics in its current season, with some hailing it as its best season yet.

"We couldn't be prouder of the undeniable viewership heights The Gilded Age has achieved this season," said Francesca Orsi, EVP, HBO Programming, Head of HBO Drama Series and Films. "Transporting us to 1880s New York City, Julian Fellowes and the enormously talented cast and crew have created a 'cant-miss it' entertainment experience from week to week, and we're delighted to continue exploring these characters' grand ambitions for what we promise will be a thrilling fourth season."

"Thanks to Julian and the phenomenally talented cast and crew, each season of The Gilded Age delivers stories rich in drama and history, stellar performances and stunning production value," added Erin Underhill, President, Universal Television. "Every moment spent in this world and with these characters only deepens our love for the show, and we're so happy that our partners at HBO and audiences around the world are clamoring for more."

From 'Downton Abbey' creator Julian Fellowes, the series follows a young woman named Marian Brook who moves from rural Pennsylvania to New York City in 1882 after her father's passing to live with her old money aunts. Exposed to a world on the brink of the modern age, Marian must decide whether to follow the established rules of society or forge her own path.

Well , This show is a great melodrama set in the gilded age. Great acting.good use of existing golden age mansions . From other states of course as they were all erased long ago in nyc. It reflects the ultra rich of that era very well

.. I haven't watched this since season one.. not for me... pretentious drivel if you ask me.

I do find it VERY funny how the theme song is the SAME THEME SONG AS WESTWORLD.. just altered in tempo slightly. HBO and all their billions spent too much money on sets and costumes and couldn't afford original music.

This is great news. This show is so classy and elegant. HBO has to be spending tons of money to produce this quality program. I look forward to each episode.

Thanks HBO
