As we mentioned earlier this month, the cast of Downton Abbey would be in New York, and here's a clip from their panel... though be warned, it's sort of jarring to see them in modern day clothes and talking about Laura Linney, The Wire, and making Occupy Downton jokes. However, they will make you feel better about not understanding everything in the show.

Season Two finally comes to the States, on PBS, on January 8th, with Thirteen airing a full Season One marathon at 3 p.m. on New Year's Day. Season One can also still be streamed on Netflix.
