Get ready to ball your eyes out, laugh your heads off, and cry again but with tears of joy....all in the span of an hour, EVERY rough ridin' WEEK FOR 8 WEEKS! What a treasure!

I predict that my favorite character of season 4 will be free-spirited, "playboy" brother Harold Levinson, played by Paul Giamatti. You just know he is going to be rough ridin' terrific.

But, and this goes without saying but I'm saying it anyway, I know we are ALL still heart broken over the loss of Matthew. RIP, bro.

Well, you better not check back in this thread unless you like loads of unintentional spoilers for seasons 2-3.

I can't wait.

Knowing Downton was on tonight is the only thing that got me thru the day after yesterday's Chiefs game.

I am going to watch it on a about a hour delay, so I won't jump back into this thread until later, for fear of spoilers.

Oh man. Mary crying in Carson's arms reminded me of the pain I felt yesterday.

Mary is going to stir up all kinds of trouble for her old man.

The "half breed" stuff from the nanny was very disturbing.

all you need to know is that Mary is a widow.

And you know Mary and Thomas got themselves a one-way ticket to bone-town. I called that as soon as Matthew died.

Carson was such a boss with Mary. *tears*

Can't believe they hired that lady's maid.

I was starting to like the gay butler guy but good grief why does he have to eff with nice people.

Mosley is such a sad sack. Always has been. Feel so bad for him. *IMO, his early scenes with Matthew where Matthew didn't want to use him were some of the best of the show.

The whole Germany thing w/ Edith is just sad and boring.

He's just a shrewd middle-aged man still madly in love in the most annoying way possible. Handled it like a boss.
