We watched Downton Abbey online this afternoon ... I'm a bit sad that it's just one more episode + the Christmas episode then it's done.

I thoroughly enjoyed it .... but I am hoping for some closure in the Christmas episode (which is REALLY the finale finale, ya know?)
This last episode had some great moments, and some hard moments ... and I really feel like the outcome of Mary's storyline seemed a wee bit ... forced/rushed for TV. But I admit it ~ I cried! I am hoping that the Christmas episode has some positive things for Edith.... But this series has pretty much always been about Mary's love life, hasn't it?
For those of you who just want to watch it online, free, you have several options: Couchtuner or Simply June. Be happy to provide the links for either if anyone is interested.
Anyone who wants actual spoilers, feel free to PM me.

Many of you know, I "work" (unpaid) full-time for a nonprofit organization ... a cat rescue ... called The Cat House on the Kings. Anyway, we've got 3,500 calendars to sell .... we ship worldwide .... so if anyone is looking for a chance to do some charitable giving ... You can order one for $20 (shipping included in the US). It really is a cute and well-done calendar. Note: there are 4 small puppy photos in there. (We had some one demand a refund last year because of a puppy photo ... so now we're warning you! Warning! Warning! Cute puppies!) Such a deal! So much cuteness! www.cathouseonthekings.com/docs/forms/calendarorder.php

I am caught completely off guard. I thought Downton Abby would be on our PBS this winter. Now you are saying it is done at Xmas? I was looking forward to the kickoff of the season. PBS had a showing of the first episode prior to the start of the season last year. I will check their webpage. I checked. Our season starts on January 3, 2016.

I watch online at the same time it airs in the UK... and their season is now over (8 episodes) with just the Christmas episode left .... airing (obviously) at the end of December. Then it starts a week or so later in the USA.

Three of the cast were on Steven Colbert last night. Robert, Tom and Mary. Can we skip Christmas and get to Sherlock and Downton Abbey please?!

So I ordered the entire series of Upstairs, Downstairs and have been watching it. I have one season left. But I really see a lot of story similarities that have happened on Dowton Abbey. Love them both!

It's December 25! It's December 25! It's December 25!
Tonight in the UK at 8:45pm on ITV is the very last Downton Abbey episode EVER ... the long-awaited Christmas episode! WOOOOO HOOOOOOOOO!
We're either going to watch it live using a VPN (virtual private network) or we'll watch it tonight or tomorrow on CouchTuner or Simply June online .... because it's been well over a month since the last regular episode of Season 6 (the last season!) We re-watched the last episode last night online, just to stay reminded of how things were left.
And just 9 days until it starts airing on PBS in the USA .... so y'all can actually start chatting about this with me!

Woooo Hoooo here also. We have our Downton Abbey Premier and high tea this afternoon. Kick off for the new season. So many people said they wanted to go so I put in that number to reserve. Half dropped out because of other commitments like family changing Xmas dinner to today.
Their loss. I will probably be overdressed in a velvet pant suit. It's very cold here so it will be okay for the weather. I am hat and gloveless. I will gather up some things from the tea for one friend.

One comment from this season (which I know no one else has seen) ...... it's not a substantive plot spoiler, so don't freak out.
Ready?
Skip this post if you don't want to know .....
Daisy looks cute with short hair.

I'm finding it hard to be excited. My MIL said it's because I'm secretly sad it's the last season. She's probably right.

Secretly?!?! I'm obviously sad it's the end. My satellite box is acting up so I spent last night watching Downton on Prime instead. The end of the first, beginning of the 2nd season. They look so young!

DH looked for it on couch tuner and couldn't find it. I assume, couch tuner, it's where he usually goes.

I'm not sure I believe the whole mess is over for the Bates' though. Wrapping things up or not, it doesn't seem their style.
