I was expecting it as I read that the two characters who
left wanted out of their contracts. Still, it was disappointing.

I don't care who dies as long as Maggie Smith is still there!

I love this show but if it is going to become a soap opera then I am out. There is enough sorrow in life, do we have to see it over and over on tv also.

We will find out at the end of the year when the next seasons starts unless someone in England spills the answer since they see it before we do.

No, he is really being killed off. I saw an article on yahoo news that they are having tryouts for her new love interest.

it was so sad and unfair...but then again life is seldom fair. I cried too!

The Dowager Countess is my favorite character! I love her little barbs and comments and Maggie Smith plays that part superbly :)
