Any fellow Downton Abbey fans here? I love it. It's sort of a soap opera itself. Just got caught up this weekend and watched last Sunday's episode last night. It was so sad I couldn't believe it.

I Netflixed the first season right before the second season started and I've been hooked ever since. I go back and watch it over and over again. It really is that soapy-goodness and real drama and conflict that I love in a story.

I've heard it was a good show, but I have never watched it. My brother and sister in law watch it and they LOVE IT!!

I'm almost done streaming Season One. It's really good. Lots of twists and turns, but well written. And, I love Maggie Smith.

I definitely recommend it. I got hooked when my mom and sister were watching a DVD of season 1 last Christmas. My sister loved it and had asked for it for a gift. I remember I got to the house and rolled my eyes thinking it would be really boring. I think it hooked me after like one episode.  |

I will def have to watch Downtown Abbey |

Yes, they're finally together. I watched last night and they said next week is the Season 3 finale already. Sometimes when a show season comes to an end they may replay the previous episodes as a recap. You may want to check. Then you could get it free.
I'll try not to give anything away but I really liked last night's episode and can't believe I actually felt compassion for Thomas for once. He's always so sinister but last night they really made me feel for him. I was also really happy for Anna and Mr. Bates. I've always loved them.

Some lazy weekend I definitely recommend renting it on Netflix or something and watching a few hours. I bet you will be hooked. Just start at the beginning b/c it is basically a soap so you want to know the history. |
