How can we bring ourselves to say goodbye? In one last visit to our beloved Abbey, things are changing with the times (how astonishing!), and some people are dealing with it better than others (what a shock!).
Retirement, pregnancy, divorce, organizing the county show… just about every major life milestone is happening to one of our favorite characters.
Will Daisy pull off her first big dinner as the head cook? Will Edith keep from fainting the first time Mary asks her for sisterly advice? Will Mary survive scandal and FINALLY take her place leading the estate? Will the estate itself endure???
Call up your most fabulous gay playwright friend, prep a pitcher of Old-Fashioneds, and don your best tiara for a final farewell to the most glittering jewel in Julian Fellowes' crown, our dear Downton Abbey.

[Life After Downton, Episode 19] - Let's just admit: it's rough out there in the real world these days. On this episode, the damsels discuss how the current political climate is affecting what we want from pop culture. Sure, season two of The Handmaid's Tale is just as well made as the first, but is the bleak storytelling doing us any good as viewers? And on the new show Dietland, are the feminist messages getting lost in the noise? What kinds of stories about women do we as TV fans hope to see on our screens as the production cycle catches up to the news cycle (if such a thing is even possible)?
In the end, a lively round of One Fabulous Thing reminds us how much art is out there to love and draw inspiration from. So pour yourself a secret glass of the Commander's whiskey and join us for a new episode of Downton Gabby!
One Fabulous Thing:
Pose TV Series on the FX Network
