The Buccaneers
Based on Edith Wharton’s unfinished novel of the same name, The Buccaneers centers on a group of young American women trying to fit in into London’s high society, where they were sent to look for love and marriages during the 1870s.
The Gilded Age
The Gilded Age is one of the shows responsible for putting period dramas on the map in recent years, and it returned for its second season this fall. It’s set in New York City’s rigid social scene, where the clash between the “old money” and “new money” is the cause of constant drama among the members of the Upper East Side’s society.
Lessons in Chemistry
Lessons in Chemistry is not set in such a distant future, and it will take us to 1960s America. It’s based on Bonnie Garmus’ hit novel of the same name about an aspiring chemist who becomes an overnight sensation after becoming a host of a cooking show with a feminist twist.

All the Light We Cannot See
Anthony Doerr’s Pulitzer Prize-winning novel is finally getting its long-anticipated adaptation thanks to Netflix. All the Light We Cannot See will take us back to the midst of World War II in war-occupied France and chronicle a complicated bond between a blind French girl Marie-Laure LeBlanc and Werner Pfennig, a young boy forced to join the German army.
Lessons in Chemistry
Bonnie Garmus made quite a splash with her best-selling book Lessons in Chemistry, and Apple TV’s adaptation is just around the corner. Brie Larson stars as a brilliant chemist Elizabeth Zott, who accepts a hosting gig on a cooking show after facing gender discrimination in the scientific world.
Fellow Travelers
Based on Thomas Mallon’s book of the same name, Showtime’s mini-series Fellow Travelers will take us back to the height of McCarthyism in America. It centers on two men from different backgrounds (played by Matt Bomer and Jonathan Bailey), whose volatile romance spans four rocky decades.
