Thumbs down

I could see it too.

It always amazes me how something beyond the norm, has
weight even as a vulgar humor satire. I think people actually prefer this video version, all in all.

I will never see Downton the same again.

(for those who like this sort of thing, there is a very difficult to watch satire of Helen Mirren and Billy Crystal doing zombies on a satire site-- whose name escapes me now...I wonder why?)
Look it up....if you are interested.

I looked up cataract surgey when that
Aired.. Surprising that there was a form
Available then. Certainly not what we have
Now. But it was something at least.

Well they had cocaine then...you know until very recently cocaine was still used (and might be still in some hospitals) for numbing the cornea. They removed the whole lens then, so without the glasses, one would be "blind" and cannot focus well.

So it might not have been too bad. The tranquilizers, or other sedatives, would not be around though. So the stress would be huge I'd expect.

There will be a Season 6 as well. I saw a spoiler and I now know who is getting married on Season 5. Season 5 is done in the UK and that is where it came from.

yes, the spoilers are all over now.

I saw a site recently...with quite a bit about the upcoming season for us in USA.

And in the comments section were more than one mention--
"Please leave Anna and Mr. Bates alone" .. so I guess this coming season will be more painful drama for them both. sigh.
