Overview

Another Period is a mockumentary-style period comedy television series set at the turn of the 20th century. The show follows the wealthy Bellacourt family of Newport, Rhode Island, particularly focusing on the misadventures of sisters Lillian and Beatrice, who are more concerned with their appearance, social status, and fame than meaningful pursuits. Created by and starring Natasha Leggero and Riki Lindhome, the series also explores the lives of the family's many servants. The Bellacourts are portrayed as having vast wealth but little to contribute to society, a fact that becomes irrelevant due to their financial standing. The show blends historical setting with satirical humor to depict the idle rich and their household dynamics in early 1900s Rhode Island. It originally aired from 2015 to 2018.
