It’s no secret that I’m a huge Downton Abbey fan. In fact, instead of being a normal fan who waits until Sundays to watch the next new episode on PBS, I scour the internet looking for the episodes (which have already run in the UK), and watch them on my laptop. In bed. Maybe 2 or 3 hour-long episodes IN A ROW. D thinks I’ve lost it.
So, what I’m trying to tell you is…I’ve seen all of Season 2 and I KNOW WHAT HAPPENS WITH LADY MARY AND MATTHEW.
If you love the show as much as I do, you must watch this. I can so relate. Happy weekend!

February 20, 2012 at 4:38 pmAm I the only one out there that sort of wishes that Lord Grantham and the maid (was it Kate?) had had their fling? Naughty, but I thought they had good chemistry and felt very disappointed when she decided to be noble and turn in her resignation. I wonder if we’ll see her again, seeing as she lives in the village. I actually cried at the scene when she goes in and tells him she’s leaving. And my favorite line from last week’s 2-hour was when the chauffeur is about to paid off by Lord Grantham and says “You think that the rich have a monopoly on honor”.
I peeked ahead at the Christmas special on YouTube…so I know what’s going to happen, but hopefully will be sitting down tonight to watch part of it!

February 21, 2012 at 10:36 amDon’t fret I do the same thing! I watched the entire first season in a couple days of sitting in carpool line. Then I caught on on Season 2 last weekend on my laptop watching it nonstop for hours!
I have asked my husband to refer to me as m’lady.

February 21, 2012 at 1:45 pmOMG, hilarious! O’Brien is totally prettier lately, hmmm.
If anyone wants to catch up, you can watch on the PBS website.
Can’t wait for the updated Upstairs/Downstairs this Spring. The 1st season of the original is on Netflix – I’ll probably be watching that all at once once weekend in the not too distant future!

February 21, 2012 at 3:54 pmOMG, this is what I must look like to my hubby every Sunday night! So funny. As I scrolled through the comments I caught “paper dolls”, I think my Sarah is going to need some of those!

February 27, 2012 at 1:38 pmI just fell off my chair laughing at this. Begged my hubby to watch it and swore it was amazing, and he just stared at me insisting it’s a girls show. Turns out, he may be right. This show requires girls and wine. : )

February 27, 2012 at 2:29 pmI love the show. I’m an American living in the UK (literally a few minutes from Downton Abbey/Highclere Castle.) Also, I worked at a hotel nearby the crew and some of the cast stayed at while filming the last 2 seasons. The stories I could tell! This show has received such high remarks here in England, that I find it amazing that it’s just as obsessed over in America.
