Downton Abbey...I'm obsessed. There's only two seasons so far but another is in the works but won't be aired on PBS as part of Masterpiece Classics until January 2013. I don't know if I can wait. I finished both seasons in a little over a week and I want more.
It's a period piece, set between 1912 and 1920 so far and follows the lives of the Crawley family as well as their servants. You'll learn about Lord Grantham and his history with the castle and his American wife, Lady Cora Grantham. You'll fall in love with the characters and hate some of them just as much but they all captivate your attention. You might have a crush on Matthew like I do or hate Mrs. O'Brien and Thomas with a passion.
And who cares about the media saying that Downton Abbey is not historically accurate or that some of the grammar wasn't used in that time period. It's a fictional TV show and I highly recommend it.
Tell me...have you seen it or heard of it? What do YOU think?

Steve and I watch TPT (PBS) on Saturday mornings for the cooking shows, so we often see the commercials for it. Steve wanted to watch this past season (S2), but I had no interest. We never really knew when it was on, so we never watched it.
One thing I do know though, I hate when people call it DowntoWn Abbey. Duh. Read!
Mmmmm, looks good. Did you catch up with Netflix? Where can I get all the episodes?
Mamamouse, Season 1 is on Netflix but I purchased Season 2 through Amazon on Demand.
