[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here, it's not just the American (instead of British) accent or the manner of speaking, but people coming from stage acting might explain it.

Episode 3--everyone at least middle class and above would have known about Clara Barton from her civil war nursing, I remember her from grade school history.

Julian Fellowes definitely transported the Downton Abbey cook character to this one (not the same actor I think but everything else is the same) and I'm looking for shades of other characters in these.

The is no way Bertha's maid in this would have been as forward to George, even so far as telling him the household staff is all supporting him. Even is the US was far less class conscious than England I just can't see it. I'm only 3 episodes in but even even if she snagged him the scandal would have shut her out of wealthy society (new people and old) forever.

I do like the aunts and except for Ada's lost dog complete meltdown I really like Cynthia Nixon in this.

Oh yes a maid would have done that [/quote]
