These were all series/shows I watched earlier.........before the broken leg. Some on girls trips and some on a winter vacation to Hilton Head while hubby was playing golf. I'll back track to these in a few days, as I'm continuing to knit Jeweled Lines as I elevate and ice my foot.
I wanted to post rankings from Google which I found interesting. These rankings are simply where people on google give a thumbs up or down. I would have preferred a middle ground on a few when I did my own rankings. I've added the links to the blog posts where I chatted about these shows if you're interested in a bit more info...or why I liked or didn't.
Tulip Fever, which I didn't care for got a google ranking of 76%.
Upstairs Downstairs I would probably rate about the same as google 87%
The Duchess was rated 88%, I would probably agree with that.
Larkrise to Candleford I would rate higher than google did at 93%. I was sorry to see this series end. I enjoyed it a lot. I liked all the characters except The Thomas Character. He really annoyed me. I kept wanting to say shut up to him. I was also disappointed Robert Timmons wasn't in the last season. I wonder if it's because filming perhaps over lapped with Downton Abbey where his character was Mr. Bates?
Poldark I would also rate higher than google did at 93% I LOVED this series and am most anxious for the 4th season to come to the states, possible fall of 2018.
Grantchester was also rated at 93% on google, I enjoyed it...but have rated it slightly lower. It's entertaining, but I had a hard time with the premise of a Clergy being a solver of mysteries and such a heavy drinker.
Doctor Thorne was rated 94%. I watched one episode and didn't return to watch the remainder so ....would definately not agree with this ranking..........then again, maybe it got better and I would rank it better if I watched the whole thing?
Victoria was also rated 94% by google. I would not rate this higher than Polark or Larkrise to Candleford.
Downton Abbey was also rated 94%, I would rate it higher than Victoria.
**Land Girls was rated 94%, think I would probably agree with that, once I figure out my top down ratings.
Home Fires was rated at 95% by google. I really really like Home Fires, hated the ended as it left you up in the air because additional episodes were planned and then it was cancelled. Debating how closely I would rank Home Fires and Downton Abbey, and Larkrise to Candleford.
The Grand...was also rated 95%. It was good, but again don't believe I would rank it as high as Home Fires or higher than Downton Abbey and or Larkrise to Candleford.
**Google rated both The Crown and Call The Midwife at 95%. There are new episodes since I last watched Call The Midwife, I believe one more series so, will have to think about those ratings.
The Crimson Field was rated 96% Debating here, yes higher than The Grand, and maybe tied with Home Fires?
Manor House was rated 96%...don't agree with that at all. It's interesting, but definately not as good as The Crimson Field, or Home Fires or Down Abbey, or Poladark or Larkrise to Candleford.
