Season 1 (2010) (S01)
I don't quite understand the huge popularity of Downton Abbey, but after the first two not-very-engaging episodes, I decided to give the series another chance and so far, I don't regret it. If for nothing else, then mainly because of the character portrayed with grace and elegance by Maggie Smith. I enjoy her performances immensely, and I almost always have a great time with the sarcastic remarks she makes in between her speeches. My admiration also goes to the set and the period costumes. Overall, I see it as a kind of relaxing romance with elements of drama for lovers of times long gone.

Season 6 (2015) (S06)
For the vast majority of the time, I enjoyed the final season of Downton Abbey at least as much as the first four seasons. But then there was the last episode, in which the fates of all the characters were handled in the style of the most clichéd soap opera. I simply have to take this fact into account in my review, although I hate to because it degrades the overall impact of this otherwise magnificent narrative saga. (65%)
