Finished episode seven, and eight of "Znation" season two.
Not a bad character; just plotwise, I think, hwr time has run out.
Ha! He might not have the hair or the ruffled shirt, but there sure is a family resemblence. He could easily play his dad. Mind you, I'd love to see him play the Doctor...
The latest installment of Downton Abbey. Again, no spoilers, but there is a shocking surprise late in the story.
My prediction, and you read it here first, is that Mary and Tom are going to wind up as a couple.
I agree completely, it feels like they've been setting that up from even before he went away, Mary and he were forming a bond / a connection that was very close and personal last season.
Yesterday we watched episode 10 of "The Man in the High Castle." This is - so far - one of the best things ever done on TV. The style is fantastic, the story is interesting, different and complex, but not - as some shows seem to do - so complex as to become either impossible to follow or too difficult to be worth it, the characters are three dimensional, the acting is solid and each episode is better than the one before it and you don't believe it is possible that they can keep upping their game, but they do. I have two episodes left this season, then I'm going to read "The Man in the High Castle" thread to see what everyone else thinks, but so far, I am beyond impressed with this show.
Oh, I don't know how Fellowes is going to turn it. True, Mary literally told Tom in a recent episode, "You're my brother." And I agree that Mary, except with Anna, is a difficult, cool little fish (if there's one character among the DA people I can't warm to, it's her). But bringing Tom back from America -- I couldn't figure out why, unless Fellowes has some plan for them.Have to agree with everyone else on the shocking moment on Downton Abbey! I'm pretty sure I gasped in surprise and horror. Definitely was not expecting it!
Good episode, though. I don't think that Mary and Tom are going to get together - I, too, think they have more of a brother and sister relationship. And Mary is such the opposite of Sybil - Sybil was full of love and warmth whereas Mary continues to be cold and aloof. I think Tom wants someone like Sybil.
I have it on good authority (from a cast member!) that they are going to begin filming the second season in March. I cannot wait.

Oh, I'll agree about Mary (except "evil" and "villainous" might be a little over the top!). But I have a sneaking suspicion that Fellowes may bend things that way, whether or not it makes sense for the characters as previously portrayed.The "shocking surprise" was only a surprise in how graphic it was. Mary and Tom? Marry your sister-in-law who's the exact opposite of the woman you loved. Sybil.... voluptuous, energetic, loving, sexy, daring and kind.... Mary, evil, cold, villainous, duplicitous, boney and flat as a board!!!!! Every man Mary touches either winds up dead as a door nail or unhappy as hell. Tom's watched Mary work her mojo close up and personal. You think he wants anything to do with THAT? As the kids say... "c'mon man!"
