I liked this DVD and the series. It is good for all ages. Creator Julian Fellowes brings the top PBS drama of all time to its climactic sixth and final chapter. The fates of the Crawley family, and the servants who work for them, are…
The melodrama finally ends... and we know that only a little later there will be the American economic crash and a further rise in extreme politics internationally. The sets and costumes are fantastic, and the many and rich subplots give a…
It is only now that I finished viewing Downton Abbey for the second time, and this made me share my views on this excellent series. The British are masters of producing TV series and this is very likely the best that came from their…

I don't like period pieces but thought I'd give DA a try after watching The Queen. Late to the game but loved watching entire series on DVD with no commercials.

Well-crafted storylines of the posh upper class coming to grips with post-WWI changes, including the changes for their working class servants, eager to move ahead. Gorgeous surroundings and a peek into a now-gone lifestyle.

While I enjoyed the series, this season was a big disappointment. Henry Talbot, really?? There was zero chemistry, and it felt so forced. Everything ended "perfectly," which is to say, it is not worth watching b/c you will just eye roll…

Good conclusion to this series. Sometimes series end with unresolved issues, but I thought they did a good job of getting everyone settled. By the end, I was quite bored with Mary and her snobbish attitude and her dull love life. At…

I don't know something about the final episode was anti-climactic. Maybe, I just couldn't believe something positive was going to happen to Edith! Overall, it was a phenomenal series and I am sad to see it over. I am definitely going to…
July 12 2016.....Sigh, it's over. What a beautiful ride. Think I'll take this trip again someday. At least they gave me some hints for other series to check out. I know I used to watch the old Poldark on PBS about 30 years ago, (Has it…

Sad to see it end. Ended well - kept holding my breath for Edith. Worried every time she paused to ponder her good fortune -- just hurry to the altar! Nice new digs for Edith.

Almost everything was done well in this final season, including some unexpected plot twists.
Spoiler:
The one tiny complaint I have was the bland Henry Talbot character (Mary's love interest). No chemistry there. He was just thrown in to…

So good. What will we all do now that it's over? I hope PBS has something really good in the works or I'm going to be very disappointed. If you haven't watched this series yet, you are missing out.
