Title: What a huge failure
Review: After a wonderful first season, the second season of Downton Abbey was a terrible disappointment. The story lines became more and more facile and unbelievable, the characters less and less interesting -- it absolutely generated into bad soap opera. After the first year's stellar quality, it was (or should have been) an embarrassment.I know others have already begun watching season three, but I have no intention of spending another moment -- wasting any more time -- on this series. Once a series loses its way in such a disappointing and ruinous way, I doubt that it will regain its footing. I suspect that is why the magnificent Dame Maggie Smith is leaving after this season -- I wouldn't want to be associated with it anymore, either.
