I was very disappointed.

Not any where near as good as "Downton Abby" or the original
UP/Downstairs series.

I didn't watch either one of the others, so I'm not disappointed and
this one is looking very good, but I need subtitles and a foreign
phrase translator.

I recorded it to watch this week. I love the premise and the fact
that the story centers around the maid some years later.

From what I got out of the opening episode, it's the original maid who
is head housekeeper by the end of the hour and the MIL was her
"mistress" in the original series. Old guard, new guard. I'm setting
the DVR to record just in case I don't remember to watch. Hubby says
it's only a series of three for now. I bet they want to see what kind
of viewership they can build up before committing to the long term.

No, Rose's original mistress went down on the Titanic. She does not
know the new owners of 165 Eaton Place.

Thanks for filling me in. It looked like she knew the MIL from "way
back". The MIL did say she hadn't been in England for 30 years, but
that didn't mean diddly to me.
