The Grand - for Downton Abbey junkies on withdrawal

Posted by Victor Khomenko on July 12, 2012 at 06:03:25:
Let's face it - the Downtown Abbey is just plain stupid, shallow and manipulative... and yet many of us like watching it - no big surprise there.

Many are sitting on the edge of their collective chair waiting for yet another season of that silliness... doing nothing... missing work, not mowing grass, letting their sex lives go stale.

Some probably already know the remedy, but for those who don't - The Grand is the better, much more entertaining one.

In reality, I think the Grand IS the better one of the pair, being less stupid. The coutresan side show is something sorely missing from the stodgy DA, and brings the element of real life excitement to the screen. The character interplay is more interesting, in my view, the butler has far stronger presence and it is just more fun overall.

No doubt about it - it IS a girlie show, but if you have to be present, then The Grand might make your suffering a bit more palatable.
