Downton Abbey- Okay I'm Into It

It takes me a while to get into things....if I do at ALL.

I never did watch LOST.




Don't really feel like I lost anything....

I have never seen a full episode of Modern Family...Shocking!



But since I have friends with the DVD's of seasons 1 and 2 of Downton Abbey....I decided to give it a roll. I have to admit from the first episode I was not hooked. I was not entirely sure I wanted to commit. By the second episode I was in.




Now I'm on to season two, war is messing everything up. You see I am watching this for drama and fancy parties. I really do not need the reality of war! Now there's peril, perjury and paralyzation. DANG. I wanted silverware, silliness and snide remarks. Okay I'm still getting that. After all they are English.

I have to say it's wonderful to see Maggie Smith, the matriarch. She is so funny and adds so much life to the show. I love Brendan Coyle (Mr. Bates...Mr. BAaaaaaaaates) and Michelle Dockery (Lady Mary) is a genius actress. One minute I loathe her the next I feel sorry for her and the next I feel proud of her. Good times.

Are you watching? Don't tell me anything beyond season two! Bad enough I hear things on the news!

Love Downton Abbey! I've been watching since it first aired and can't get enough. Seriously I should have been born a crowley.

I love this show so much! I just caught up a few weeks ago and I'm obsessed! The war stuff is a bit blah, but stick with it!

Modern Family is really good and funny too, but I never cared to watch Lost.

I was late to the party too but I power watched the first two seasons and now I'm all caught up. Loving this series!

I don't watch but I plan to start. You MUST watch Modern Family. So hilarious and the episodes are only like 20 minutes so it's easy to watch while you're doing something else!

I watched the first one and it wasn't enough to make me want to watch again. But I still can, I downloaded it. I do love Modern Family but it's quick and the shows before and after aren't that great. Also if you miss Modern Family you can still watch again. It's not the kind of show you have to see each and every episode to know what's going on
