Downton Abbey (2010–2015)
10/10
I have watched this show over 2 or 3 times
21 May 2022
That being said, I wanted to watch this series 1 more time before Netflix sells it to someone else.

This time around I can't help but seeing how incapable Lord Grantham is as far as running everything that involves the family and the Downton estate.

He is terrible at business and terrible at everything that it takes to keep this estate going. He relies on money that isn't his and has no idea how to generate actual funds from the thousands of acres that surround him and that dilapidated old house.

I have to laugh at how he defends his poor judgment and blames others as he refuses to move forward in life thinking that his daughters husband's and his wife's mother should bail him out.

I suppose watching this series the first time I never noticed how lame he actually is at business not to mention his youngest daughter's death. God forbid he let his daughter give birth in an actual hospital with the doctor who knew her a entire life.

I just found it in your face funny that this man was allowed to keep the estate running on anyone giving him money to keep this out of date mosoleum afloat. I know it was way back when but, he, Lord what's his name, was in charge of anything.
