Re: Currently watching.
My serious problem is that, from all that I can tell, it mourns the decline of the aristocracy. If it were a critique of those assholes—like Mad Men fundamentally is—I could tolerate it, but there's a romance to it all where "oh, wasn't it more wonderful then?"

When I say I want to see these shows /movies end in a fiery bloodbath I'm quite serious. It wont happen in reality so let me have the fantasy. I think stuff like Downtown Abbey is a false representation/reflection of English culture. Its the worst of it presented as the best.

Im drifting towards pacifism in my advanced years but not quite there yet so I reserve the right to wish for fiery and bloody justice on those so deserving.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑10 May 2022, 7:44pmWhenever I mutter something about a Bolshevik bomb thrower taking care of business, she says, "Aren't you a pacifist?"

Re: Currently watching.
Me too. I don't look into it too deeply. It's just dishy fun that takes my mind off of things. It doesn't make me long for aristocracy.
Got a Rake? Sure!

Re: Currently watching.
Exactly. I couldn't imagine living like that anyway. I'd be okay if someone cooked for me because planning meals makes my brain hurt, but the thought of someone dressing me is gross and having to socialize like that would be mind-numbing. The whole lifestyle is so opposite of me. No thanks.
I do want to visit Highclere Castle, though.

Re: Currently watching.
The revolution comes after the pouring of tea but before the addition milk, cream, and/or sugar. It will conclude with the victors consuming scones, cakes, and cookies.Mimi wrote: ↑11 May 2022, 1:18pmJust as long as y'all don't revolute during tea time.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑11 May 2022, 12:51pmEnemies of the proletariat!
