Conceits like the eeeeevil of Mrs. Bates, or the passionate discussions of czars between Sybil and Branson, or O?Brien being struck by remorse and feeling suddenly protective of a woman she assaulted via soap just one season ago, are what make Downton what it is for me: that is, a program that I find almost obscenely enjoyable despite the fact that in many ways it?s quite terrible. Especially viewed in light of the last 10 years, in which television has been transformed from sniffed-at trash to, at its best, rich and complex art?indeed, the preeminent popular art form of our time. Downton seems an odd throwback to an era of proudly square entertainment, in which villains cackle and smoke, heroes suffer but glow from within, and no scene passes without a Very Serious Look.
