I was so hoping that it would not happen. Definitely a 3 tissue event. Now will Tom stay or go? Cannot wait until next week.

Love this Muppets spoof on "Upside Downton Abbey."

I just finished season 3. I hate Julian Fellowes.

Where'd you find the whole season?

The DVD arrived from amazon yesterday.

Only watched it about 3 times so I realized it was DownTON than DownTOWN yesterday.

I thought last Sunday's episode was the best! Poor Mr Bates, I fear, is destined for a longer jail stay. I like that character! Tom, poor Tom. I hope he leaves and leaves the baby at Downton! I guess I didn't realize that Sybil was the baby AND much older then I thought at 24. What do they do all day? I'd be bored!

I don't even know if I want to watch season 4. I wouldn't be bored with that life; I'd be exhausted with all the clothing changes.

dang cliff hangers, I can't wait for Season 4....yes, I saw the entirely of Season III back in December, but I also let one of my co-workers borrow my dvds so she could finish sooner.

(More surprises are in store!)

GC needs to enable us to "like" posts. Just for posts like this! ;)

Newbie to the show here, prompted by my godmother. Our weather's been too cold to do more than sit indoors and watch TV. Since this is the weekend before Season Four's U.S. premiere, our PBS channel aired several Season Three episodes and hooked me. Not sure whether I'll need to view Seasons One and Two to catch up.

You won't NEED to watch the first two seriess to catch up, but you will want to (character development, pretty clothes, Dame Maggie Smith, etc). You get a lot of the back stories and stuff watching the first two seasons - knowing who is who is easy enough to figure out.

Season One is the best by far. Watch them!

Also, I'm still pissed about Cousin Matthew, so I may not watch season four.

I felt better about it since I learned that it was his decision to ask to leave at the end of the 3rd season (sounds like everyone had a 3 year contract commitment). It always seems to be a career mistake when people leave hot TV shows too soon.
