well, that's a wrap.

everybody gets a happy ending. except for Carson I guess? and Barrow falls in shite, comes out smelling like a rose.

1 question. why was it Rose who took robert to see cora at work? didn't she just get back in town? how was she such an expert on how well cora was doing?


daisy actually managed to look attractive at the end. And the whole maid having a baby in the "lady's" bed was funny.

Carson: in Lady Mary's bed? i should think not.


mary ends up married to a used car salesman.

I don't really see Carson's ending as that bad. True, he's sick with a bad disease but it takes a while to run its course and he's an older man. He got married to the woman he loves who will care for him in his declining health. He gets a pension and even gets to continue looking over the house as elder statesman. Not a terrible ending for the guy.

That was a very successful story arc. I hated that guy, HATED him. I mean I spent literally 5 seasons wanting to physically hurt the guy. Then this season they totally sold me on his change and redeemed him in my eyes. I was actually happy for the guy.

And yes, they seemed to indicate that Tom and Edith's editor would be getting together.

Rose's parents are divorced. Maybe she just didn't want Robert and Cora to have marital issues over this. Hearing Robert comment about Cora spending so much time at the hospital likely reminded her of her parents before they divorced.
