I have all the feelings for this show.

ALL. THE. FEELINGS.

Maggie Smith is brilliant.

Everything about this show is exceptional.

Oooh, you're much further in than I am. Still, I plan to waste most of my Sunday watching.

I wish there were more than 17 episodes. At the rate I watch things, I'll be done in a few days. I'm just inhaling this.

Let yourself be sucked in. It's wonderful.

I'm hooked on it, despite the fact that I rant and rave over the various class!fails it shows (it's one of those programs that pretends to critique class politics while actually reinforcing and supporting a sort of reactionary return to the Edwardian years). Still, I wouldn't miss it. Love the Dowager, of course (and I do hope they give her more to do. No one delivers one-liners like Maggie Smith, but she's got so much more to offer). I love Mrs Hughes, too. And the clothes.

Maggie Smith makes me ridiculously happy in her part as Dowager. And Mrs Hughes, too. And Mr Bates. And Mr Carson. They're all expertly played. I'm hooked with you :)))

I love it so much, even when it's kind of silly. THERE ARE NOT ENOUGH EPISODES. I NEED ONE MILLION.

And I need makeouts with Lady Sybil.

IKR? There's supposed to be a season three. Soon, I hope.

Isn't Lady Sybil adorable?

Mr. Bates and Anna are my favorites. Which is like picking my favorite dessert, because I love all desserts.

I love Mr Bates and Anna, too. So many characters I love. Mrs O'Brien is one of the very few I haven't warmed up to yet. The jury is still out on Thomas.

Mr. Bates and Anna break my heart they are just so sweet. I adore them, and their courtship is so hot and so subdued. LOVE. IT.

Yep, every week I am on the PBS website waiting for them to put up the next episode. And everything Maggie Smith says and does is flawless and wonderful! She has the best lines ever.

The line about how an Englishman would never die in a stranger's home was priceless. She does get all the awesome one-liners

Benedict Cumberbatch needs to make a guest appearance.

I've been meaning to check it out, because the cast is really good. Is it more serious or amusing?

Date: 2012-02-19 10:41 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] themostepotente.livejournal.com
Probably veering on the more serious, but it does have its moments of amusement.

I haven't warmed up to those two together yet, but I have a feeling that may change. *G*

I've seen the first two seasons and watched them in like two days. THAT addictive. I love Maggie Smith, she cracks me up. "An Englishman would have never died in someone else's home."

See, you devour a series like I do. I go nuts if I love something. Twelve more episodes to go!

It helps that I don't sleep. LOL. I want season 3 like NOW. I am so in love with the series. And with Matthew, ohmygod. Such pretty eyes.

I've got to miss the finale tonight, but I'm counting the hours until I can watch! M.

Are they on the season 2 finale on PBS now?

They just finished up this past Sunday with the Christmas special. (I've been watching online the day afterward.) So much drama! We'll have to talk when you're all caught up. M.

Word! It's not a show that inspires any fandomness in me but I adore it as a brilliant tv show.

Date: 2012-02-23 04:15 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] themostepotente.livejournal.com
Hmm, it may inspire fannishness at some point. I haven't digested fully. Still savouring the taste.

From: [identity profile] rinsbane.livejournal.com
omg, I know! That show holds my heart right now! I've only got the last few to watch, and I'm torn between watching them RIGHT NOW and saving them. Oddly, as someone above said, it inspires no fannish impulses. It's just magic to watch.

OMG, Rins, you could write the hell out of this fandom, too. *woe*

Uh, as could you! *g* And for your Downton fic, I'm pretty sure I could muster a hell of a lot of fannish impulse.
