Oh, so Downton isn't just the way British people say Downtown?*

I finally gave in and decided to see what the fuss over Downton Abbey was all about.



I was hooked in the first five minutes, seriously! I am terrible with accents so I am lucky that Netflix has a closed caption feature or I wouldn't have picked up half of what they were saying.

I just finished the first season and plan on having a season two marathon this weekend. I've got my fingers crossed for some kind of romantic development between a certain valet and housemaid.

I came across some cast pictures and was shocked with what I saw. Remember O'Brien? Dreadful, miserable O'Brien?



Well, she is smokin' in real life. Yep, that's her in the red. Check her out!



Have you fallen in love with Downton Abbey too? Who is your favorite character?

*yes, my friend actually said this. and was serious. i love her.

I still have not watched this show. I don't know if I will but it's tempting. People seem sucked in.

Anytime I read it, I read it as Downtown too.

I'm probably going to start watching this weekend. The last thing I need is another show, but I just can't stay away with all of the great reviews.
