Loving/hating Giamatti too, especially next to Mc Lane but we know what Fellows can do with great actors.

As usual, I am late to the party. Just started watching Season 1. Rose Leslie, what a sweetie. Enjoy her very much, however, Brendan Coyle has my uuu la la, waiting for a shaving scene or river bath with him . Wonderful series.

the only thing I remember of this epìsode was Edith´s lovely green dress. And Edith in general. "Kiss me now", cheeky lady.
Long Susan, idk, she´s predictable already. O´Brien you bitch, I´ll miss you.

So O'Brien just left? Lol, did she even shoot her last scene or did they use a stand-in? "Poor little orphan" wut? Mary, you're just as terrible. And you'll never have a decent storyline. Your acting is pretty bad too.
Nanny West was just...lame. Just lame. Robert, you old sourpuss, you're just as boring as I remembered you. Don't you know you're never right? Stop trying. Long Susan, you're back! Good. Who are you again? Aww baby Molesley, time for you to go after O'Brien and start a new life. Edith, you are precious. What sort of tragedy will fall upon you next, I wonder.
Seven Hells yes, get rid of that Nanny! if they had a garbage disposal, I'd have thrown her down it. And I'm in the minority here, but I love Mary. Yes, dear get back on that horse, the baby needs his mother and your father has no head for business whatsoever. And Sybil's husband (can't remember his name ), but I hope he continues to turn out well.

Found this comment on tumblr, which I think is pretty spot on, judging by the preview for next week's episode.
"Matthew didn’t want to inherit Lavinia’s father money? Nevermind, we found out she wrote a miraculous letter!! Matthew didn’t write a will and Mary can’t inherit his share of Downton? Nevermind, we found a letter from him in a book!!!!!!!!"
So the cheesy bits of dialog and lazy, convenient plot contrivances are back.
However, it has always been the actors, who somehow elevate this cheese to something I keep tuning into.
When Lady Mary finally broke down and Mr. Carson hugged her...dammit if I didn't
I think it's hilarious how in-glamorously Mrs. O'Brien left the show, she really quit on the spot didn't she?
Methinks she could fit quite well in GOT...Lady Manderly maybe?
So what do we think? Branson and Mary are gonna in the back of their old timey wagon?

This is terrible writing. There has been *no* build-up whatsoever. Except hey look, both our loved ones are dead and we're stuck with the kids. So let's bang, okay?
Oh my that Rose is trouble . Carson was very kind to forgive that man, bless his heart.

don`t think I´ll watch this anymore. It´s painful. You just know what will happen with this new shit Anna and Bates are going through. Bullshit. Using people to keep stupid promises like in cheapass soap operas. Fuck u JF.

Um, I'm kinda with Buho on this one, tooo painful. Next thing we know, a little one comes along, and the only hope we have here is the lead housekeeper woman (sorry, can't remember her name ) and the two of them have a sit down before much longer or it's going to be just, wow, no more words.

I haven't watched it yet, wasn't in the mood. Lemme guess, Bates and Anna are gonna get separated for some reason. Don't tell me you haven't seen this coming. Yes, Julian Fellows is *that* bad of a writer.

didn`t think it would be this way. I liked how this show played with Bates character, always on the limit of the ridiculous. Not anymore, for a long time but now it´s just absurd and so bad.
You`re damn right Ly.

Really? Downton Abby but not Boardwalk Empire? Michael Kenneth Williams? Michael Stuhlberg? Angelica Huston's nephew (who may be the second greatest character on TV ever)?
Represent people.
Oh and Kenny Fucking Powers is back!

Boardwalk Empire and Breaking Bad are on my to-watch list, but I can't find the time to watch them. I already started and abandoned BE two or three times now. Mind you, I did the same with The Wire at first.
Downton? This is just one of those shows I love to hate, because it's probably the worst written show on TV at the moment.
Haven't watched episode 4 yet, but before I do, can I just say that I don't believe for one moment that a man who sees his wife in tears, disheveled and with her face full of cuts and bruises would *not* realize what just happened. Oh I just hit myself falling on the sink. Really, aw too bad, I'm just gonna let you walk away. Alone. At night. After you've just been raped. Quality.
Edit after watching: Oh look, we found a miraculous book!

Episode 3 (?): You go, Edith , love Mary, just adore her and it'll come around again. Glad that trouble maker is gone, saw that coming. Bates to find out next week? Any bets?

Oh, look. Mrs. Patmore got a rip in her dress. Right after cursing the electric sewing machine as a thing of the devil. Oh, Mrs. Patmore, it looks like karma. Or horrific writing.
Mr. Bates doesn't look happy. "This is not over." Oh, Mr. Bates.
What do you think that Rose has in store for Lord Grantham's birthday. Do you think it's a JAZZ MUSICIAN?
What the... I just don't even...

Edith has an appointment and it's not at work. Hmmmm, pitter patter of feet? Would hate to see the Irish guy go to America but hey, we'll take him . And this BS about killing the guy? Wow. Guys/families say that, and they may mean it, "oh if that happened to my wife/my daughter, I'd kill the guy", but, it does not happen. Except in Texas
