It's not that bad actually. Some dope characters but the plot lines are kinda meh.

:shockedti:

Also, it's Downton not Dowtown. Got my head chewed off at a tea place once for saying that shyt.

fukking idiotic. I usually like British shows, they have some really cool concepts and ideas that work really well and are refreshing compared to American tv, but this show was a fukking disgrace. Basically its like one character says " Helen we must not let anyone know that the family has no money" and then like 10 feet away you have some people casually eavesdropping :mindblown: like wtf? You couldn't make sure nobody was around. The way the plot moves is unnatural and retarded. C- show maybe even D.

I liked the first season, but after that it started going downhill very very fast, to the point were it basically became a soap opera with expensive sets and costumes.

I've never fukked with the show but I believe its on Amazon Prime Video. You could've peeped it on there first without paying for boxed sets

I thought it would focus on the historic and social aspect when I started watching it, or would at least be a strong period drama. But unfortunately it turned out to be a :gurl: show, so unless you are gay or a woman, you're probably not going to enjoy it. As I previously said, the sets and costumes are great and the actors are top notch too, but I stopped watching when the plots became complete :trash: in season two. Maybe it picked up later :yeshrug:

It was the seasons & bonus disks for like $40. I be binge watching shows since Corona. I just randomly saw it at Target & got it cause I figured it'd entertain me for a while. Plus a good deal for 6 seasons.

Plus on the box it says it was rated a "Masterpiece". I'll see about that.
