I watched it. Very timely. I thought I had it set to record, but somehow I mucked it up.

I love Gilded Age even though it seems like it has been a couple of years since the last season aired. I think the new season starts later this month.

Does this ever happen to anyone else?
You're watching a based on real life crime/murder from years ago tv show, and one of the characters you've never heard of is so horrible, that you are looking forward to their on-screen demise.
BUT, you can't wait, so you google how they died. Ends up they lived to a ripe old age and passed of natural causes.

"Does this ever happen to anyone else?"
I finally watched all 4 seasons of "Turn" and two characters I was hoping would die well deserved grisly deaths ended up exactly like your post...years later and from natural causes, pleurisy and pneumonia.
So disappointing. lol

Does anyone have any recommendations for a show that’s similar to Why Women Kill? (They shouldn’t have named it that. It’s misleading and some people, like me, may not have given it a chance thinking it was much more murder driven than it actually is. I mean yes, murder is definitely part of the storylines, but it’s way more layered (and even delicious) than just a regular murder storyline.
If you haven’t seen it, I highly recommend. Paramount Plus.

Has anyone been a Nielsen household recently? We were when I was a kid and you had the diaries you had to fill out and send in, but not since. How do they do it now with streaming, etc.? They have contacted me and I don’t know if I want to even entertain it until I know more about it. I looked online but didn’t find a lot of info about how they collect the data. It listed more of the what they were collecting rather than HOW. Thanks for any info.

It's all electronic now... they install monitors.
They still use paper diaries at times or phone surveys during sweeps.
They also collect data from streaming providers.

We were a Nielsen family sometime in the 2000s. For us it was done 100% electronically through my cable line. But with all the streaming services now, I can't even imagine how complicated it is.

I was a Nielsen family in the late 90's early 2000's. It was fun and didn't impact me a bit, they just hooked up monitoring devices to my TV/Cable and pulled the data at 3am every day. Although I was very careful not to ever land on certain channels, LOL.

They tried hard to recruit me. Yes, it's all digital monitoring, so captures your streaming as well. I said "no thanks". An old co-worker let them hook her up, and she says she doesn't notice. But I just didn't want anything that might interfere with my set up or slow things down. I also work from home and I didn't want anything on my internet.
