Can't forgive even though she did work hard to save Cora's life when she came down with the flu.<br /><br />Also, not fond of Matthew's Mother. She seems like a busybody and very pushy.<br /><br />Can't wait for next season!Coppertop45noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1636632642432287906.post-14462482926492157762012-03-01T20:46:10.867-08:002012-03-01T20:46:10.867-08:00I too have Downton withdrawal, and I only recently...I too have Downton withdrawal, and I only recently discovered it and watched all the episodes on Amazon and PBS online, all at once. I didn't even have to wait a week to see the next episode. <br />I think the attraction for me is partially the curiosity of such a household, that era, but also because the characters are so well developed and believable. <br />Great writers, actors, directors all added up to a heart-capturing series. I really do care for these people.<br />~aAnnieofbluegableshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17106750987640776507noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1636632642432287906.post-10957360146152548252012-02-28T09:06:27.866-08:002012-02-28T09:06:27.866-08:00I wonder if Americans love Downton Abbey because i...I wonder if Americans love Downton Abbey because it's so hard for us to imagine living either upstairs or downstairs, yet we can identify with characters on both sides of that green baize door.<br /><br />It's definitely time to re-read Lady Georgie!<br /><br />CathyAJThe Cat Bastethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08766507614966971022noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1636632642432287906.post-35861779491821902742012-02-27T13:49:13.391-08:002012-02-27T13:49:13.391-08:00I haven't seen Downton yet. :( But I *love* He...I haven't seen Downton yet. :( But I *love* Her Royal Spyness, it's my favorite mystery series right now :)Phoebehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04130819940525375025noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1636632642432287906.post-33992822709316002752012-02-27T11:15:36.800-08:002012-02-27T11:15:36.800-08:00Yes, I too am suffering from Downton DT's (lov...Yes, I too am suffering from Downton DT's (love that, by the way!). I'm not sure what the fascination actually is for me, but I know I truly do enjoy the show and am looking forward to what happens next season!Shelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12763944794673350184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1636632642432287906.post-72519616188540234832012-02-27T11:09:43.828-08:002012-02-27T11:09:43.828-08:00Lovely.
