Since I`m home sick this week - thanks to co-workers who have been sneezing and coughing their viruses/bacteria all over me for weeks, I appreciate it, having a damaged lung and all since childhood, urgh - I decided to break in some new show and for whatever reason settled on Downton Abbey.
And um, not that it is bad or anything but so far it`s basically like a newer version of "Upstairs, Downstairs". I don`t know, maybe I expected something different? More? I like period pieces, especially in that time but somehow I`m missing a certain "oompf". Hm.

By now I mainly watch for Branson :-p
Three episodes in, I haven`t gotten the hang of all the characters yet. Is he a servant? Nobility? The name doesn`t ring a bell right now.
