I have only seen the first episode. Mary is getting Maththew with the money? Just in time, how convinient? Lots of howlarious one-liners though. Maggie gets the Emmy too.

Mary: Mr. Grey has given something to make my B-I-L appear to be drunk.
Lady Grantham: Could it be drink :rotfl3: :rotfl:

Thanks.

Watch the next episode, Nerd. I'm not saying much. But one senses JF is setting up the elegiac tone, if not, all hail Countess of Grantham, Mary Crawley.

I was keen on watching "Revolution" for its concept, but now that I know Giancarlo Esposito is going to be in it, it's high on agenda.

Saw S03e02 of abbey. I still don't think that will happen. Mathew will bail them out thanks to Mary who has now sort of become a selfish pompous arrogant prick. See what a marriage does to you. But all hail lady violet, the sole contributor to the success of this show. And the makers, knowing that has started giving her lot of screen presence. The overhyped Mclaine is actually plastic and is of no help to the proceedings both literally and figuratively.

Once again, violet gets the best line of the episode which cracked me up and I was ROTFLing uncontrollably that I had to pause the video, laugh it off and then continue. "Oh I thought you were a waiter". And the lord did very well too in response to that, the 2nd best actor of the show.

What makes you think Mary's pompous prick? Obv. Selfish & arrogant as she aspires to be the countess.

Maggie vs Mclain didn't work out because latter's not given catchy dialogues as yet. Yankee v British thing didn't work out, in writing. But then Julian Fellowes isn't Armando Iannucci. Violet's still very much in his ballpark.

I LOL-ed at Bates prison sequences. It's boring. It's obvious they will bring him back.

Think the usual delights will remain. Monochromatic characterizations with its own conundrums.

I certainly expect a twist in Matthew's Swire inheritance. And future American invasion isn't out of question..

Mary being an elitist pig with that dinner. Really! She thought she d impress the American with such a pompous set up?!

Yeah I agree with you, there could be a twist with the Swire money. Also I am fairly certain that Edith's crippled boyfriend will die or something.

Edith is Mary's siter, her BF is that thatha.

You mean Anna & Bates? I always saw Bates as the one to take over from Carson.. But yeah, you could be right. It makes sense if they deal with end of times..

Yeah, that thaaththa is a cripple (arms) too, ain't it.. It's about time a tragedy strikes Downton on top of everything..

Oh okay, yeah. Cripple'na udanE walking stick nyabagam vandhiruchu :lol2:

who knows maybe the Cripple thatha would bail them out?
