The perils of loving British television

[teenwitch77]

Just an observation: I feel like every British show I ever love devolves into absolute shit after a season or two, traumatising me way more than necessary in the process, but I always love them so much more than American shows.

Ugh. I know. What on earth happened/am I even surprised?

The way things went..? Mystifying.

LOL We're talking about Downton right? Or DW? Take your pick!

The new season starts on Jan 6th here but I just couldn't handle not knowing some things, so I've spoiled myself on 2 major plot points. I really can't take it. Mostly I'm a little miffed at Stevens. I understand it's consuming to do one character for a few years, but what did he think was going to happen to the rest of the show when he went? He was kind of the big deal the whole time resting on the estate and heirs and all that jazz. Then Fellowes...there are other ways to have characters leave, yes? Or at least making them less visible?
