In Reply to: Reviewing Downton. Say, this past Sunday was strange: a two-hour episode out-of-the-blue? posted by tinear on February 12, 2013 at 07:48:23:
Mrs wanted to see it, but also started falling asleep after the first hour... I was just sitting there bewildered at the utmost stupidity of its writers, recovering from a stressful Sunday. What a degrading spectacle that one was...
Most long shows do degrade towards the end, even the good ones like Frasier. Mad Men lost it after second season, Friends might be the only exception.
Bright spot that day - two episodes of Vicar of Dibley. That was one fine show, fortunately only 16 episodes!
