Top 10 of my favorite shows
8. Downton Abbey
Downtown Abbey is the show of this chart that I have seen more recently. I have to admit that at first I was a bit skeptical. But I couldn’t be more wrong!
From the beginning it got me, I just wanted to find out more and more and I couldn’t stop watching it.
For me a thing that is really important in a show is how you get to know the characters. In this case there is a variety of people to know, everyone with their values and their flaws. You love someone and you hate someone else but while you go on your opinions keep change because of everyone’s evolution.

So instead of the plot I’m going to focus on some characters.
My favorite is for sure Tom Branson.
I’ve liked him since the beginning and I have appreciated every role he had throughout the show, from the reckless socialist to the loving husband and father, from the chauffeur to the administrator of Downtown. He’s caring about the people he loves, determined and not afraid to do what he feels right. I loved his development and the one of the people surrounding him, that all gave him the acceptance he deserved from the start.

And if I talk about Tom, how can I not mention Sybil? She was my favorite of the three sisters. I admired her independence and her strength. Not so many people would have thrown away all they had to follow their heart like she did. It’s a bummer that we didn’t get to see more about her.

Other than Tom there was another character that I loved: Matthew Crawley.
Matthew was great, an amazing person. Strong, sweet and loving. I totally understand how Mary’s heart which seemed ice cold just melt in front of Matthew. I mean, who wouldn’t fall in love? A special mention goes to his friendship with Tom. When I saw them I was always on cloud nine. Ah, my babies!

In the end, if you talk about Downtown Abbey’s characters how can you not mention Lady Violet? She’s amazing, I’m so grateful for her existence. All the witty and sarcastic comments are pure gold. Maggie Smith deserves all the awards in the world for Lady Violet.

So this is just a little bit of what I think about Downton Abbey, if I wrote everything I thought I guess I would never end. What about you? Have you ever seen it? If so, who is your favorite?
