Summer Viewing
I'm not much of a T.V. watcher and am always late in getting into the latest television thing (maybe not such a bad trait). But, I am later than late in discovering – and subsequently becoming addicted to – the wonderful television drama, Downton Abbey. The British-American television series shown in the United States on PBS is set on the fictional estate of Downton Abbey in the North Riding of Yorkshire area of England. The show is a wonderful blend of drama and trauma highlighting the early 1900s. Award-winning writer Julian Fellowes co-created the immensely popular series with Gareth Neame. Season I and II are available for viewing on Netflix, etc. Since summer is traditionally slow for movies and the like, if you're looking for a great series to immerse yourself into, this, in my opinon, is the one.

I know that was supposed to be a great series. Scott and I? We're belatedly getting into vampires, watching True Blood on Netflix--a guilty pleasure for sure.
