What is this show about and what channel is it on? I've seen all kinds of people talking about it.
Its about a British aristocratic family in the early part of the 20th century. It starts in 1912 and now I am up to the end of WW1. It is sooooooo good. You would like it. Season 1 is on Netflix and Amazon. Season 2 is currently being shown on PBS.
You don't understand the appeal of Benedict Cumberbatch / think he's fug / don't know who he is? WATCH SHERLOCK. Until you do, your negative opinion of him will not be taken seriously.

Adds to list of things to watch while on maternity leave to pass those endless hours of BF'ing.
I also love the Dowager Countess. I want to be her when I grow up.
Unable to even.

So, episode 4 (I think) is not great, good, but not a good as the others. 5 & 6 are excellent. I just have the last 2 and I am done. I think the last one is The Christmas Episode and that is where big stuff is going down. I'm going to explode soon.
I love love love her. My favorite quote from her so far is "What is a week-end?" I laughed.
Thomas makes my skin crawl. He is so just... ick. I still think O'brien is shady. I thought she would have had a total personality turn around after that incident, but she is still kind of a snatch.
Bates and Anna are super cute, Daisy too.
I just love the show! It seemed like it would be so boring, but it is so not. I'm sad that I'm almost all caught up.
Oh! One of my coworkers said her husband had to stop watching it after the 1st episode because he couldn't stand how mean they were to Bates.

Arugh! I don't have the Christmas episode. I thought I did. Well, I'll get that and DH can bring it back for me in March. I wonder when that will air here....
But it looks like Season 3 will air starting in September next year, which means Jan here, I would assume.
And I can't stand Thomas either. I'm hoping he has a big come-uppance soon!
Oh, and DH can't stand this show. He's seen all of 10 minutes and thought it was boring and that it jumped ahead in time without any warning or explanation. He's a big goober. And he insist on calling it Downtown Abbey.

LOL, I called it Downtown Abbey until I watched an episode. Whoops!

I have seen them all, including the Xmas episode! Seriously, you WILL EXPLODE when you see that one. They did an incredible job on it!
Thomas is a giant douche. And I cannot stand O'Brien. Though I think she might have a conscience in there somewhere.
Oh and Team Lady Edith. Mary can suck it.

Anna and bates are too cute.
I hate Thomas. I thought we were done with him after last season but we're not that lucky.
O'Brien is growing on me.

I wonder if is worth buying or should I just wait it out. He'll be back with it on March 12.
I love Bates!!
