| Does anyone else watch this? I just love it, and anything BBC. My latest infatuation is "Downton Abbey"...is anyone else watching this? The season premiere of season 2 was tonight. It's a wonderful series, and a huge hit for PBS. FYI, you can watch season 1 online. It's very addicting, if you like this kind of show!  http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/masterpiece/downtonabbey/index.htmlI just finished another series, the 2004 BBC version of North and South. Another great period drama. And I watched the 2006 Bleak House last week...a bit more slow moving, a very detailed miniseries, with amazing acting. I hate to say it, but the Brits have it over we lowly American actors!   | |

| I've watched about two minutes of it. It airs fairly late in my neck of the woods so I've never watched it.
Is it a clean show? | |

Yes----not 'Little House squeaky clean', but clean.  | |

| I haven't had a chance to try and find that yet, Amy, but I will. I remember you mentioned that to me, and it sounds interesting! | |

| It's not for everyone...in fact I didn't get into this type of programming even 5 years ago. Now I can't get enough of it! Savannah, let me know if you end up getting into it---I'm pretty sure you would like it. I'm definitely certain that you would like North and South though.  | |

| I forgot to mention, Downton Abbey won the Golden Globe for best mini-series!  I can certainly see why.  Three of their actors were also nominated, but none of them won. | |

| Krissy, are you talking about Murdoch Mysteries? I'd like to give that a try as well. Some of the episodes are filmed on Kevin Sullivan's backlot that was used for Wind at My Back. There's also some RtA actors in some of the episodes, such as Lally Cadeau/Janet King. | |
