[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All of these posts supporting the Mary/Matthew "love" story kind of surprise me.  She is horrible.  I find that story line the least compelling of the entire series.  I really like Matthew's character, but Mary's I find completely one-dimensional, not likable, and not a good match for Matthew.  They will probably end up together, but I just find her so not likable on so many levels, them getting together will do nothing for me.  Otherwise, I really love this series![/quote]

I completely agree.  I actually felt sorry for Matthew when he fell in love with Mary because she's so unsuitable.  Not a big fan of Edith either. She ratted out Mary and thus betrayed the family.  As PP pointed out, she also worried more about her dress than Carson and that was terrible.

The least compelling story line to me is this business with the Turkish diplomat.  I can see why it would be shocking and gossip worthy but I find it an annoying stretch when even Mrs. Bates has found out about it supposedly (including details about who carried the body).  And how did details about who carried the body leave the house?  Did Edith write about that in her letter to the Ambassador?  Or Thomas spread the gossip?  Whatever folks--deny it all.[/quote]
