Television time well spent on this show.

As a working senior citizen, I choose wisely the time I spend on TV. This show has been so unique and with so many characters to play out, I look forward to the episodes. I like the staff more than I like the main House Characters. Altho the story line is very good for them, I want to know what the staff is doing and thinking and what's going to happen next. My favorite is the cook. At first I thought she was a terrible person, but her disability was revealed, healed and her depth of character shined in her attention to the others. Thank You for giving me quality TV. In a media that is loss in quanity and rude/lude, violent genre.

About The Show

Downton Abby - a sprawling, lavish Edwardian mansion and park nestled in the lush North Yorkshire landscape - needs an heir. After a tragedy at sea claims the life of the presumed heir, Lord Grantham is faced with the possibility that the house he's loved his whole life might someday belong to a distant cousin he's never met. But before he can worry about that he must deal with his scandalous daughter, Lady Mary - considered by many to be the rightful heir to Downton. Even the staff has opinions on the family's affairs. And while most are devoted to those they serve, there are others whose selfishness and scheming do more than simply disrupt the well-oiled inner workings of the estate. As the servants' mischief escalates, even the most faithful employees begin to imagine a different life.
