Tomorrow night, “Downton Abbey” finally begins its latest run over on PBS, which we like to think of as great news for anyone who has been eagerly looking forward to more adventures with the cast.

With the season 5 premiere of “Downton Abbey” coming up on PBS this weekend, many of the show’s cast members are back in America on their annual publicity tour. This is always an insane one for the group, given that they are forced to basically take time out of the holiday season to stop by […]
Let’s start with an obligatory warning: There are spoilers ahead for “Downton Abbey” season 5. Is Lily James gone from the ITV series for good?

Are we nearing the end of the road for “Downton Abbey“? This is something that we have admittedly wondered for some time. As a matter of fact, we have even advocated at times ending the show next season. It’s not necessarily a case of us wanting to see the show end (because we do love […]

For example, there were constant questions throughout regarding whether or not Tom Branson […]
Tonight, “Downton Abbey” season 5 officially came to a close in the form of a Christmas Special that brought plenty of information, surprises, and a very long run time. Too long, probably. Can’t most of these specials tell the story as effectively in 20-30 less minutes? Anyway, there is no reason to fear about the […]
Tonight marks the “Downton Abbey” Christmas Special, and going into it, there is one pretty substantial question that we would understand you having: Is there going to be a notable departure?
