Broadway.com casts Downton Abbey: The Musical!
Alice Ripley as O’Brien is so beyond perfect.
And Jeremy Jordan as Branson!
Now I’m just going to help Julian Fellowes write the tagline for season three: Incest is coming.

BIG ANG.
“Downtown” Abbey.

The future is upon the ladies of Downton, and the Dowager Countess is not feeling it whatsoever. As she so wonderfully stated, she would rather stay on a chaise lounge than adapt to any of the new trends. Sybil, of course, is the exact opposite, which is not surprising, because girl has been known to rock a mean pair of genie pants. Mary too, is open to change. She sounds like a fashion editor who just came back from the Paris shows and is now questioning their entire style aesthetic. I imagine if Mary were around today, she would have sounded like this: “You guys, all the French women are rocking short hair now. Get me locks of love immediately, because the whole looking like a boy things is going to be huge this fall and I NEED to be ahead of this whole Albert Nobbs trend.’
Mary is pushing him around all day and complaining that her arm muscles are going to look like Jack Johnson, which sounded really stupid at first (because I’ve seen singer Jack Johnson in real life and LOL, no.) but turns out the Johnson Mary was referring to was the first African American Heavyweight champ. Whatever, Mary shouldn’t be talking about Johnsons in front of Matthew because his is broken.
Fancy Entourage
Maggie Smith’s acid-tongued Countess will no doubt have something delightfully bitchy to say about this: Oscar winner Shirley MacLaine is joining the cast of Downton Abbey as the mother of Elizabeth McGovern’s American-born Lady Grantham.
All dreams of sexing her cousin are crushed, but yet she still sits by his bedside, wiping vomit away from his mouth. So basically, Mary Crawley is now living my college experience.
What’s better than Revenge and Downton Abbey? A side-by-side match-up of both shows’ well-fed, well-heeled, not-always-well-intentioned characters.
The problem with this:
Should have read: Useless younger sibling everyone wants killed off: Declan & Lady Edith.
