My dear friend Abra Tabak (along with Emily Altman and Kathy Salerno) are recording their reactions while watching the second season Downton Abbey, and it is LULZ.
Behold: Watchin’ Downton.
This was me the past 3 days.
I think this officially makes me the last person on the planet who hasn’t watched Downton bleedin’ Abby. I just can’t get my head round ITV having made something of merit - it’s just not possible!¹
¹To the Yanks: I know y’all have been watching this via BBC America. But it’s not a BBC production. It was shown on a channel called ITV1 in the motherland. ITV1 is the home of shite like The X-Factor, Coronation Street, and a show called The Only Way is Essex, whose “cast” make the people on Jersey Shore look like quantum physicists!
It’s honestly no exaggeration, ITV haven’t produced anything of merit for a decade. And then Downton… comes along, and suddenly they’ve got something [so I’m led to believe] utterly fantastic.
It’s all very strange [to us Brits].
Basically Maggie and I when we watch Downton.
We should be best friends.
ATTN: racd, who used to work...effing hilarious and performs at UCB in NYC.
i want more people to things like this. always.
I need chick friends like this.
Abbey is SOOOO good!!! 2) If my Mum & I were recorded watching it (or almost anything really)
Katie, this is probably you. I don’t watch Downton Abbey..but I need to. NETFLIXXXXX!
