Thoughts on Downton Abbey  s02e01 (minor spoilers):

Dowager Countess, FTW!

Bates and Anna: Awww. AWWW. Oh no. NOOOOoooOOOOoo. Did Carson or Mrs. Hughes tell Anna about the overheard conversation? Because if not, that’s cruel.

Molesley is acting very strangely.  Or maybe we never saw enough of him before, but I don’t like him.
