How to watch season 4 of Downton Abbey in the U.S.
I might have mentioned that I’m a bit of a dork-fan about Downton Abbey. Perhaps in one of the weekly, emotionally-wrought recaps I’ve done of every single episode with my friend Sarah James. Downton Abbey is a UK show, and usually airs in the UK several months before it hits PBS here in the US. I used to wait for months before it would air here. Then I stumbled upon a way for Americans to get our Downton Abbey fix. It’s a VPN hack called TunnelBear, and according to their website it’s . . .

Well. As you will see, Sarah and I move from speechlessness to anger to denial to just plain yelling. A lot of yelling. SPOILER ALERTS AHEAD. This episode was shocking, to say the least. What will become of our beloved Downton family? How are you coping with this horrific turn of events? . . .

Sarah and I are picking up the pieces of our broken lives after last week’s episode. Fortunately, this week was a little more upbeat. What did you think of this week’s episode?

Once again, Sarah and I are chatting it up about Downton Abbey. We felt it was a darker episode. Lost letters, burning houses, sad single Edith, money issues . . . womp womp womp.

Okay, fellow Downton Dorks. As many of you noted, Sarah and I got our episodes confused, since we cheated and watched the British version instead of waiting for it to premiere in the US. The recap I posted on Sunday for episode 2 was actually a discussion of the 2nd half of the US premiere, since the two first British episodes were combined for us here. Anyhoo, here we are talking about episode 2, in which Edith . . . well. You know. Spoilers ahead! Once again, I was dying laughing . . .

Alright, folks. As I’ve admitted before, I’m a bit of a Downton Abbey dork. Luckily, I have other people in my life who share my passion. My friend Sarah and I decided we needed to make a video after each episode to process our Big Feelings about this show. So, without further adieu, I present: Look how serious we are!! I was cracking up trying to get a screenshot of us looking “normal” during this video. One of us is cringing or emoting during the entire video. Here’s our reaction to the first . . .
