Dear Abbey, Downton's Done
Posted: March 2, 2014
A faithful viewer vents his grips…
Dear Abbey,
Now that Downton's done,
my Sunday nights won't be much fun.
Why must I wait ten grueling months
to get my Grantham fix?
I've come to be feel at home you see
with Britain's aristocracy.
This Peyton Place of bygone years
is quality TV.
Upstairs, downstairs, in-between.
The haves and have-nots, kind and mean,
observe (and push against) the norms
of life the way it was.
And, Abbey, I just need to vent
because I'm feeling discontent.
It seems unfair to wait so long
since seasons are so short.
