Sundays Without Downton Abbey




Today is our first Sunday without Downton Abbey in our future. So shocked and sad this series has ended!

I've only recently discovered Susan Branch's wonderful blog. She's a published author of many books, who writes a witty recap of each Downton episode the day following the airing. 

Oh how I love her humorous rendition of the madcap antics of the Downton's family and friends, all of whom Wild Bill and I have grown to love! Yes, Wild Bill is a bigger fan of Downton Abbey  than I am -- if you can believe that. He used to remind me early Sunday afternoon that Downton would be showing that night.

If you're a Downton Abbey fan and haven't already found Susan's blog, "pop over" (as the English might say) and catch up on all the old episodes once again. 



Thanks for dropping by!

  1. Hubby and I just had a marathon Downton Abbey weekend. We missed the whole season with his illness. I had a lump in my throat for the whole last filming. I loved the show. The other one I love is Call The Midwife-also a PBS show. It, too, is addictive. xo Diana

    1. Di, so happy to see by your blog that your hero is on the mend and done with chemo. I've resisted starting another PBS show until Downton finished. Now, for sure, we'll be starting with episode one of Call The Midwife.

  2. I know it's hard to believe, but I never really got into that show! I'm sure I'm one of the few that didn't watch it. Every now and then, I would watch it but it never really sucked me in. Ha Ha! I'm sure it will be difficult to get used to not having it on TV anymore.

    1. Kelly, we didn't know about it until the second season. We watched a few episodes before we got hooked on all the backstabbing of Thomas and the snobbery of Carson the butler, as well as the true caring and friendship between the upper crust and the people who served them during the early 20th century.

  4. I'm afraid I gave up on Downton last year, I was tired of the whole Anna thing and Daisy drove me crazy.
