Anticipating the newest Downton Abbey movie to begin streaming this weekend, we have been watching all the previous Downtown Abbey content.
The six seasons and the last two movies.

Season 1 and 2 were good.
The last four season and these three movies generally sucked. It was clear the simply ran out of good plot ideas.

The big question for discussion: when exactly did Downton Abbey jump the shark?

I'm sad to see no replies, I had to google 'jump the shark' as I was confused.
Never watched and never would watch Downton Abbey it sounds 'rather dull'
. I admire OP's stamina states 'season 1 and 2 were good' continuing to watch
4 more poorer series.

Married life means watching a lot of TV that my wife loves. She has to put up with cycling and other sports.
