I found myself not missing Matthew(I must not be all that attached to the character). All in all it was a pleasant surprise how much I enjoyed this season.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4523012080492654376.post-85547617925396454202014-01-11T19:41:30.871-06:002014-01-11T19:41:30.871-06:00I'm waiting for you to do a Death Comes to Pem...I'm waiting for you to do a Death Comes to Pemberley review ;D I have some mixed feelings about it!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4523012080492654376.post-84330586851884855452014-01-08T09:24:41.594-06:002014-01-08T09:24:41.594-06:00Great review!

I still really liked her in this 4th series, especially her 'friendship' with Isobel.<br /><br />I'm also really interested in Baxter's backstory. I really like her so far and her scenes with Molesley are precious (especially the one at the end of the Christmas special)<br /><br />I never thought I liked '20s fashion, but there are some things (Rose's dresses, some of the maid's going-out-dresses) I unexpectedly do like!

The first season leaves off on a cliffhanger, so the second season finishes off any cliffhangers. I will warn you that the third season is a bit of a dud and the fourth isn't better, but I find that happens a lot with British period series: the first two seasons are usually the best and later seasons aren't very good. But nevertheless, I recommend Downton.Miss Elizabeth Bennethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02019249086339232260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4523012080492654376.post-59231882886253400102014-01-06T23:12:30.956-06:002014-01-06T23:12:30.956-06:00I've heard so much about this series.

I am considering at least watching the first season someday, but it has never really jumped out and grabbed me and demanded my attention, even though I am curious to see what everyone is talking about. I like more of the adventure movies myself - but the costumes. I love the costumes from what I've seen and I think I would have fun watching it for that alone.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4523012080492654376.post-87615823048326495862014-01-06T17:02:41.476-06:002014-01-06T17:02:41.476-06:00I know, right?

I keep watching because I want to know what's going to happen next, but at the same time, I wish it was more like the beginning of the series.Miss Elizabeth Bennethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02019249086339232260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4523012080492654376.post-2368341908681497112014-01-06T16:03:05.098-06:002014-01-06T16:03:05.098-06:00Thanks for your great synopsis!

I do agree, a lot of the luster has gone from the series but I will still watch to get some sort of fix:)WelcomeToMyWonderlandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04563335016785159921noreply@blogger.com
