"Poor Mr. Pamuk."
I want to live like Lord Grantham.
To: dynachrome
I’ve watched some of it a long time ago, I just don’t get the appeal.

The piano music in the intro is catchy. It’s going to be hard to replicate its success with the actors being 7 years older.

I actually found the show to be a tad bit repulsive. All the servants bowing and scraping around the lords and ladies. “Yes, m’ lord. No m’ lord.”
All it did was remind me of why we had a revolution.

They need to do a prequel.
No one wants to see what happens to the House of Grantham under 20th century post-war UK socialists.

And this time ... everyone is black ... and gay.
To: PGR88
Will everyone be black in this version?

Prequel good call. Grantham as a British officer in the 1880s and when he meets Cora, the early years.

I’m sure the servants for the Rockefellers and Carnigies behaved the same way.
To: dynachrome
I have been quite busy writing my adaptation called ‘Downtown Detroit’
The appeal is obvious.
To: dfwgator
Someone will end up marrying a black. And maybe the gay servant will bring his boyfriend over for a visit.

Yahoo. We watched the show several times. When friends join us they end up fixated. Best series I should think in decades. I do not watch commercial tv except for Bluebloods. This public tv which is even worse—is actually a gem.
To: BigFreakinToad
I’ve watched some of it a long time ago, I just don’t get the appeal. Yes, several of my friends were crazy about it, so I watched maybe the first three episodes of Season 1 and never caught the excitement.
Different strokes for different folks, I guess.

Revolution or not, DemocRAT Presidents still do that for foreign leaders.
