I still like Mary. At least she goes after what she wants. Not like Doormat Edith, who always looks confused.

I love Mary and I love Edith almost equally and for wildly different reasons. I give the edge to Mary for the way she confronted that strumpet blackmailer in the season opener.

I would have learned to love Mary if Andrew had lived (unless she dirted on him), but alas it was not to be. She's still villainous in my book for what she did to Edith in early episodes.

Edith deserved it for ratting her out to the Turkish government! 
And GAL, I think you mean Matthew?

Edith was repaying Mary for a lifetime of nonstop crapping on her.

WONDERFUL episode last night!!! At the end I was grinning from ear to ear.
SO glad to see Edith kick that editor to the curb and edit the magazine herself...and meet a new beau in the meantime (I deduce this one)
So glad to see Matthew and Sibbie back, the wedding between Carson and Mrs. Hughes was precious...you can see who is going to end up wearing the pants in that household! LOL All around a wonderful episode.

I was so sad for Mrs. Hughes (now Mrs. Carson!) when Cora found them all in her room and went off on them like that. I was glad she was able to apologize and gave her the coat. How many others does she have? It was the least she could do.
I nearly burst into tears when Tom and Sybbie showed up at the wedding. He and Sybbie belong at Downton. I was so happy they came back.
This season is going by too fast! I feel like they're trying to tie up all the loose ends and give us closure on so many things. It breaks my hear that it's all going to be over soon.

I was so happy to see Tom and Sibey(sp?) back!! Glad the wedding went off without a hitch. Edith did well with editor and new guy! Yes, you can feel it wrapping up. .
I don't know what will happen with Thomas and the job situation.

The new Mrs Carson looked lovely at her wedding. The skirl of the bagpipes after the ceremony was a wonderful added touch, paying homage to her Scottish roots and the wedding feast looked totally delicious!

BJM - thanks, I wasn't sure how to spell her name.
Yes, the new Mrs. Carson did look nice. The coat added just the right touch!

So surprised and glad to see the return of "Sybbie" and her Dad. Edith will do a fine job as the editor of her magazine.

I just hope Edith ends up with that tasty critter who helped her put the magazine together at the last minute!

yes Ricky, I hope she does end up with him but she really didn't pay him no mind....so maybe just reoccupied.
About time Cora got out of bed and actually said and did something useful.
Mary has now lost her job since Tom came back (a little heavier I might add lol)

I just want everyone to find love and have a happy ending by the end of this season: Edith, Mary and even Thomas! And I want to see Anna with a baby.
