I came across a few discussions,
on Blogher today about Downton Abbey. If you are a fan of the show they are
worth browsing through.
One of my girlfriends mentioned she had been
watching it, by our excited reaction you’d think Brad Pitt himself had walked
into the room. Me and another friend lit up, gasped and said, “It’s so good.”
At this point you would have thought we had just been grabbed Brad’s tush, but
no, we were just talking about this charming PBS series.
Downton Abbey is well into its second season, only I
just discovered it. My mom had let me borrow the first season. She placed it on
my counter, “You’ll like it.” It sat in that very spot for weeks, because I hadn’t
had a moment to watch it. Then, low and behold, I heard it had won a Golden
Globe, and that’s when I popped it in. Now, I’m addicted.
I love how the story highlights the servants, whereas,
other British films I’ve seen don’t. You’ll be amazed with the costumes and the
array of character, each with their own agenda. Actors include Maggie Smith,
Elizabeth Mcgovern and Phyllis and Phyllis Logan to name a few.
I’ve just finished season one. They have been signed
on for a third season. Way to go PBS.
Oh Great! Just what I need. At least they're only in Season 2. When I finally discovered Gilmore Girls it was no longer on the air and I spent all my spare time and into the wee hours of the morning watching all 500 Seasons!!!
ReplyDeleteYa. You're going to love it. Don't say I didn't warn you.
Deletep.s. even more pathetic, I may have seen all 500 seasons of GG more than once. Oops.
Bravo PBS, Bravo!! I just finished the first season and I may have cried twice in the very last episode.....what?!? :) I'm in love!
ReplyDeleteI just finished the first and my mom has the second she's going to lend me. We may need to do a Downton marathon.
