Anybody as hooked as I am on this British period drama?

ginny_potter · « **Reply #1 on:** October 02, 2012, 01:42:04 am »

^ I am. Just marathoned Season 1 and currently starting on Season 2.

Oh, and to spoil myself... I read up on their Wiki page just so I can familiarize myself with the characters.

I haven't watched it yet but I plan to, soon! Ima-marathon ko sya. Because I love period dramas and this show's been getting a lot of great reviews.

I absolutely love this show! I'm just waiting for the right time to start series 3, but I already have the aired episodes in my laptop.

Do so, Sis. Very much worth your time!

I'd have to say my favorite relationship's Matthew and Mary's. Parang teleserye lang! I also love all of the Dowager Countess' lines. So hilarious! Maggie Smith is the best.

FN_Pat - Sis, you have to commence watching season 3 so you will know how these lines were delivered by Sir Matthew to Lady Mary: "I will never be happier with anyone else as long as you walk the earth..."

Maggie Smith is golden! So classy and regal yet so downright b.

Ahhhh... same here! I fell in love with Dan Stevens because of this show. Who wouldn't actually fall for a guy like Matthew, noh?

Can't blame Lady Mary. <3

A close second would be Branson/Lady Sybil and Bates/Anna.

I find Thomas cute as well kahit balasubas ang ugali.

Okay, I'll start it this weekend!

And yes, I've seen that Lady Violet video before! She's really the highlight of this show for me. I'm really curious to see her relationship with Cora's mom in s3.

^EZTV, Sis.

ginny_potter · « **Reply #15 on:** October 16, 2012, 11:03:51 pm »

Oh my, iyak nang iyak ako sa latest episode. I thought it would lessen the sadness after I read the recap first pero hindi eh. Ramdam ko yung pain ng pamilya... especially Lady Cora.

enitsirhc · « **Reply #16 on:** October 17, 2012, 07:42:59 am »

^naku Sis. feeling ko when I was watching the latest episode, part ako ng household.

so sad, indeed.

ginny_potter · « **Reply #17 on:** October 17, 2012, 07:53:31 am »

I am starting to like Thomas this season. Bitchesa pa rin pero he showed his sensitive side last night after hearing the news about Lady Sybil. The Alfred-Ivy-Jimmy triangle eh parang si William-Daisy-Thomas lang nung Season 1.

I can't imagine what would happen to Branson, este... Tom pala. I hope he doesn't leave Downton and Lady Cora fights for him and the baby to stay there.

I'll be doing a marathon for S1 & 2 this coming Sem Break. Looking forward to watching this series. Comments nyo pa lang kinikilig na ako

ginny_potter · « **Reply #19 on:** October 25, 2012, 08:54:28 am »

- paminsan-minsan talaga lumalabas ang pagka-chauvinist ng Earl. Lady Cora, ftw!
- super-tamed lately si Thomas, although may pa-simpleng landi kay Jimmy from time to time. but the kid's starting to notice and he's not liking it. uh, oh...
- why do i get the feeling na baka hindi magkaka-anak sina Matthew and Mary? or maybe they'll just have a hard time conceiving, huh?
- i want branson to stay. he's a great foil to the Earl. plus, at least Matthew will have a confidante aside from his wife na ka-age niya.
