Downton Abbey

Re: Anyone a Downton Abbey Fan?

We were rabid fans from the beginning, in large part because of Julian Fellowes' other work.

For us Upstairs Downstairs or Brideshead Junkies....it has been the perfect fix.
 
I love the parodies almost as much as the series itself. :)

the first 2 were made last year, the third is the newest...





 
I'm so over the fact they killed off Matthew.

Um, if you actually paid attention [I guess this was mum in the US] but the actor that was playing Matthew said that season 3 was his last one. The problem is, he stated that publicly so they killed him off in the most deus ex machina way possible. Dame Maggie Smith said that next season will be her last one and the show SHOULD honestly just wrap up at that point. The plot points now are already so absurd that Julian Fellowes should attempt salvage his reputation. The last holiday especial apparently was a direct ripoff of his previous movie, Gosford Park.
 
Re: Anyone a Downton Abbey Fan?

I have not started on the third season yet. Did you watch the Christmas specials? I need to catch up with the season 2 Christmas special before I start on my season three. Then I will watch the season 3 Christmas special bring myself up to date.

Yup, I watched the Xmas specials as well. The way they got rid of one character in the X-mas finale (I won't spoil it for anyone that hasn't seen it yet) was downright silly (if all too predictable).

The season 3 holiday special was no where near as good as the season 2 one. Season 3's was a whole lotta nothing.
 
Wasn't expecting that. Two major characters gone in one season. :(

Will Thomas ever find true love?
 
Good ending...knew it was coming by accidently googling Downton Abbey, it mentioned the death of 2 major characters.

Does anyone know when the next season will start in the UK?
 
Re: Anyone a Downton Abbey Fan?

I am a devotee, but I have both a weakness for costume dramas in general, as well as Maggie Smith's work. To her credit, she has taken a caricature and made it a source of comic relief, as per written, but I prefer her in roles that are more robust, like the sister in Ladies in Lavender. After such a long career, I guess I'm thrilled she is yet finding work. It would be much harder this side of the pond.

As in all such series, the subplots are what make it worth tuning in. The men aren't very attractive to me in this series, but they aren't toads either.


I really enjoy Maggie Smith's work. Ladies in Lavender was a wonderful movie. A Room with a View is one of my favorite movies ever. I really enjoy Forster's work.

Ahhh yes! A Room with a View - one of my top favorites too. So many great scenes. "Oh, poor Charlotte!" lol
 
I just started watching Downton Abbey about a month or so ago. Almost finished with season 2 now. Liked season 1. Love season 2. I hope 3 is as good as 2. I'm actually really surprised that I like this show so much. It is exceptionally produced.
 
Lord Grantham was in the new show on Starz - Da Vinci's Demons. I thought he would be a regular but he was just a short 20 second special guest.
 
I get a feeling that Season 4 (supposedly the final season) won't even come out? Weren't there at least a few main characters (the actors) leaving the show due to other obligations/desires?
 
^Good. A show as great as this one deserves a proper wrap-up. I hate awesome shows with shitty and abrupt endings.
 
Ha ha ^^. When I first read this, I thought you were be a fanatic and stating "Tom Cullen" from Twilight is coming to DA. WTF? I need to get off here!
