Oh oh, Downtown Abbey started airing a few weeks ago, and its amazing! And yeah, Top Gear usually gets aired here without the news segment or the cool wall, and I hate them for itr.

Like, the show itself started airing, or the latest season?

Because the first two seasons are great (don't listen to the season 2 detractors, they don't understand the difference between a show set during peacetime and during WWI). The third season...not so much, although that wasn't all the writers' fault.

Ah Top Gear, great show. I watch it when the new ones are shown Mondays on BBC America. I know they had the Cool Wall in there several times, though I never really knew that's something they cut out though, but it never really bothered me if they do.

Also TopGear UK > Top Gear USA anytime.

I heard of Downtown Abbey but haven't watched it.

The Bates storyline in season 2 was kind of stupid, but other than that I thought all of the "zOMG MORE DRAMZZ!!!" that people bitched about on The A.V. Club and stuff was perfectly plausible for what was happening in England during WWI.

I heard of Downtown Abbey but haven't watched it.

It's Downton Abbey, no second w. Though I would totally watch the shit out of Downtown Abbey.

What's fun is when you've been watching and talking about the show for too long and then you end up spelling the regular word "downtown" without the second w in a sentence. Lolololol.

Anyway, now that we're talking about Downton it's time to show off my collection of Dowager Countess gifs:

Professor Mcgonogall is literally the reason why I watch it. I love the actress.

@Chespin;

It airs in the evenings here and in the UK, too, I think.

Sunday night is when the best shows are on in the U.S. Namely, all the ones I watch. Sometimes it's so hard to choose! I was really glad that I watched Downton online when it aired in the UK, because it made my life easier when it was airing against Girls here.

My parents just sent me a picture of our kitten Ziggy licking his lips.

DYING OF CUTE

I don't know why I want to go to McDonald's. The one nearest me is full of crazy people.

My favorite bar has 25-cent wings tonight, but that'll probably not save me that much because I'll buy too many beers while I'm there.
