I did, too. We had a "45" (remember them?  ;D ) of "Downtown." It might still be lying around somewhere.  :laugh:

I never realized she had quite the impact that she clearly did.

I remember all those old shows, too!

Now--not  parody, but the real thing,
second season:

Thanks, Aloysius, for posting these previews.

Does anybody know when PBS in the States -and by extension in Canada, where I am - plans to start showing the second series? I'm much looking forward to it though from the previews it looks as though the mood and tone will be much changed by the outbreak of the First World War.

I was reading about Downton Abbey in the Australian online papers when I was travelling in Europe in May and June. I hoped I would see it when I returned to NZ in July only to find it was on in NZ before Australia. I thought I would have to buy a DVD. However they are replaying the first series before they show the 2nd series so I have now watched 2 programs. I was disappointed in the first program mainly because the homosexual scene was between 2 unsavoury characters. I enjoyed part 2 last Saturday night.

My sister in England asked me not to phone her between 9.00 and 10.30pm this last Sunday as the first installment of the second series of Downton Abbey would be showing. I phoned at 10.40 to get her initial reactions. These were very positive though she didn't want to tell me much as she knew I would be seeing it over here at some point.

So does anybody know when we in Canada and the States will get to see it? Personally, I can't wait.

I think one of the above articles suggested it would be released here some time after the first of the year.

The previews look great!

I've been re-watching the first season on Netflix:  just as good the second time around.
