I hate the snobbishness and not sure if I will continue after this first episode. Downton Abbey was very subtle with the snobbishness, but classism is very hurtful and I’ve dealt with it nearly all of my life. I think Cynthia Nixon is the wrong person for the character of Ada Brook but Christine Baranski is spot on with her character. There is even classism at work with the household staff of both mansions.

The classism amongst the staff and the all around intolerance really made me bristle. I realize it is accurate for the times, but still. shudders
