Downton Abbey Ending

Posted by | March 27, 2015 16:00 | Filed under: Media/Show Business Top Stories


The next and sixth season will be the last.

Executive producer Gareth Neame confirmed Thursday that “Downton Abbey” will end after its upcoming sixth season — and said there has been discussion of continuing the story of these charismatic aristocrats as a feature film.

“It is something we are contemplating. It would be a wonderful extension of the TV show,” Neame said. “It would take a lot of time and planning. [Creator] Julian [Fellowes] and I would be very interested in doing it.”

Neame said that the decision to end “Downton” on a high note was a joint decision by producers and the cast and he stressed that contract negotiations or ratings were not a factor.

    Oh well, another show come and gone that I never saw even one episode of. It’ll join Seinfeld and Friends.

      I could have lived without Seinfeld, I never thought it was that great. I loved Friends, but it really only worked in the 90’s. Like you, I haven’t seen any Downtown Abbey, but I’m a binge watcher so I’m sure it’s in my future.

      Then again, I spent one entire week watching 3 seasons of a New Zealand show called The Almighty Johnsons. They were four brothers (and their grandpa) in NZ that were reincarnated Norse gods. It was awful, so, very awful that I loved it. ANd the music was really pretty good.

      Some of my favorite shows were ones that I disdained to watch on their first runs: Sherlock, Scrubs, Night Court, Friends (not all that bad), and, while I was just a wee sprout, Green Acres (arguably the single. weirdest. show. ever!, including the Monkees).
      I don’t foresee that happening with this show.
