Bahahahaa! Either a giant penis or a Minion!

That would be nice, but I don't think they have those kinds of feelings for each other. They're more like brother and sister.

Really? Everyone just seems matter of fact - it's time for him to get a new job. He's the one wallowing in self-pity. It's gross.

It's not like he has lots of options at this point. Mrs. Hughes gave him good advice though about moving on and working somewhere else. He could ask for a good severance and do that.

according to wikipedia, there are 8 episodes and a Christmas special. We've seen 7, so only two more to go.

Oh no!!!

Well, it's been a regular snooze-fest the last few seasons, so I will be relieved.

Also, Edith saying "Suck it up." Yeah, vacuums in the homes weren't commonplace yet and although DA had electricity, I doubt there were any outlets. Pathetic writing or lazy actress who can't learn her lines.

When did Edith say, "Suck it up," and in what context? I must have missed that.

Sorry, to clarify, she said something in the first two minutes to the effect that Mary's beau was "sucking up" to Lord Grantham.
Way, to early for the term: http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/suck–up

Lord Grantham gets a new dog. Edith gets a beau/husband. Mrs. Patmore gets her B&B. Tom meets a new lady (the editor - did no one else see that coming??). Mr. Bates and Anna get a child.

What about Mary though? Will she relent and accept the new guy (can't remember his name)? Only two episodes left, so they'd better hurry! Also, what about Isobel and the doctor?? I was so glad Violet exposed Larry's awful fiancee for what she was. That Violet - so clever!

If so, then all 3 daughters married "beneath them."

Finally, Lord Grantham gets a new dog! Lady Violet scores again. (Although this one doesn't look like a pure-bred English lab -- looks a little long in the snout for that.)

WIth Mosely leaving, doesn't that mean that Thomas can stay? He's so stylish, I'm wondering if there is some future for him in the department stores as a men's buyer or something. (I know, it's a stereotype...but I just can't imagine such a good looking guy not being able to find a job batting his eyes at someone!)

And, finally, I really don't think Anna should be working and galivating around with a cerclage, should she? Can someone who's had this procedure weigh in? I thought it was bed rest strongly recommended...

Yes, Anna does know about Marigold, as does pretty much everyone else (except Mary, and Edith's beau).
