Our old friends are back in this box office hit. Lofty Lady Mary, superannuated Lord Grantham, stuffy Carson, scheming Barrow and the rest of the gang are thrown into a tizzy by a royal visit that will unleash scandal, romance and intrigue, leaving the future of Downton hanging in the balance. Heavens!

“It’s a featherweight delight, like the prettiest pink-and-white cake on the tea tray.” — Stephanie Zacharek, TIME Magazine
“Downton Abbey is eye and ear candy of the highest order: rich and delicious…” — Michael O’Sullivan, Washington Post
“Downton Abbey, the series, has only been gone for a little more than three years. But that’s just enough time to make its return very welcome, and to make this feel like the right moment to usher it back into the zeitgeist again.” — Jen Chaney, New York Magazine
“I, too, got swept up in this Disney-movie fantasia of benevolent, gracious aristocrats and their plucky servants all working together to… serve dinner to the king. Downton does that to you.” — Sophie Gilbert, The Atlantic
