are you watching Downton Abbey?
am I the only person who didn't have a clue that this
show is in Season 2 already and
received rave reviews for Season 1?
well, due to the fact that I go to bed around 8:30
and it airs Sunday nights at 10:00,
it made sense that I wasn't in on the buzz.
a few of my co-workers were talking about it
and since they're already into Season 2
I thought I'd give it a try....so, Amazon came to
my rescue. I purchased Season 1 for the DVD ~
and after reading the reviews I made sure to buy
the UK version which is 3 episodes longer than
what PBS was showing. I also pre-ordered Season 2
and that will ship after the PBS showing is complete.
It took me two sittings to complete the series. I
watched 4 episodes on Sunday afternoon (no football)
and 3 episodes tonight (hubby working)
and let me tell you I did not waste my money!!!
I loved it...highly recommend it...and can't wait till
Season 2
Any other bloggers love it or hate it?
if so, what about favorite characters or least favorite!!!
what about favorite story lines?
I'll tell you I detest Thomas and Mrs. O'Brien
and I can't wait to see how involved
Anna & Mr. Bates will be!!!
there are so many more to love/hate!!!
I can't wait to start Season 2...

I LOVE Downton Abbey. My daughter turned me onto it last season. We now own Season 1, and since her birthday is in a couple weeks, I'm getting her Season 2 for a gift. (Though we are currently watching each episode together.)
ReplyDeleteOkay, you might laugh, but besides Matthew and Mary, I LOVE Sybil and Branson. NO, I don't like Branson's socialist leanings, but I think they are an adorable couple.
I also think Hugh Bonneville (Lord Grantham) is mighty fine looking. No, he doesn't come close to touching my classic movie loves, but I DO enjoy looking at him each week.
Happy almost Friday!
Love,
Patti
I am going to start season I Friday night and I can hardly wait.
ReplyDeleteSmiles sweet friend,Dottie
Don't you just LOVE Downton Abbey? I know I did, saw both seasons and can't wait for the third one! BBC productions are almost always fantastic! Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteI'm like you ... early to bed means no night-time TV. Thanks for the recommendation and the idea to purchase an entire season to watch at my own convenience.
ReplyDeleteI have never heard of it.. I am going to have to look it up!!! Thanks for the tip my friend..
ReplyDeleteHugs, Linda
Hi Victoria....I have been wanting to watch this for sometime now....I'm going to try to order it on Net flix.

Love, love, love Downton Abbey!
ReplyDeleteLove to hate the 'villians', Thomas & O'Brian, wonder about Mary & Matthew and if they end up together, enchanted by Daisy & William, love just watching Lady & Lord Grantham, the 'Dowager Countess', Maggie Smith (adore her in any of her roles !), has me laughing out loud in the middle of the night when I watch my downloaded Series I. Seriously saving to buy Series 2.
ok. I'll stop now -needless to say, I'm addicted!!!
So glad you are enjoying one of our popular programs ... i have to say that I have not watched it (shame) ... just a time frame thing ... but my friends all love it ... have a great day

Oh, gosh, Victoria! Downton Abbey is my biggest obsession! I love every moment of it--can't get enough of it!
ReplyDeleteI love every single character in it (except for Thomas and Mrs. O'Brien, of course!) So glad you're loving it, too! So happy to have another Downton friend!
I missed it last night & had to tape it, so I'm VERY MUCH looking forward to my "me" time tonight!
Wishing you a beautiful day, my friend!
