So, I'm sitting here watching Downton Abbey. I really really enjoy this show. First of all, I love period dramas of all kinds, so I was totally enticed from the very beginning. Also, I love the cast, I think everyone is just so sweet. Also, there are some character I really hate and dislike, which is refreshing. Sometimes, you get bored when you just love everyone in a show. I don't like Mary. I think she's a snob and kind of heartless. I didn't want her and Matthew to end up together. I'm sorry, I know it's an unpopular opinion, but I can't stand her.
See, I love Michelle Dockery. I think she's gorgeous, funny, and so sweet. But I hate Mary. See, you have to learn to differentiate between characters and the actors that play them. I hate it when people hate on an actor just because they don't like the role they've been given. A perfect example is Amanda Abbington. If you know anything about her, you know that she's really intelligent and sweet and a huge activist for animal rights, I really love her. But the backlash she get when she was cast as Mary in Sherlock was appalling. She got death threats. FUCKING DEATH THREATS, because she was given a role. She and Martin have fucking been a couple since like 2001 or something and people had the audacity to give her shit about it. Sometimes people are really fucking stupid.
