I have been utterly take in by Downton Abby (new series on PBS). I'm a true lover of a good period drama for several reasons.
1. I'm a hopeless romantic and love a love story, especially one that involves prolonged sexual tension.
2. Im a sucker for pretty costumes.
3. I secretly wish that I had been born a British aristocrat.
4. I prefer formal to casual in most situations.
5. A good wig fixes everything.
Seriously, do yourself a favor and watch season 1 on Netflix. Just be warned that it may cripple your ability to get anything done for 7 to 8 hours.
I'm a fan of Downton Abbey as well! For pretty much the same reasons you listed. The second season looks good. The whole Mr. Pamuk thing was AWK-WARD. Still, Mary's resilient. It'd be nice if she and Edith stepped back from all the cattiness. :)
ReplyDeleteI LOVE Downton Abbey! I watched the second season in one sitting...talk about addicting. Season three needs to come out asap, i'm dying over here!
