The Matthew/Mary Story, In One Sentence:
UPDATE: HOORAY! NOW EVERYBODY KNOWS!
HE IS FINALLY GOING TO PUT A RING ON IT.
3000+ FOLLOWERS. Whut.
DAMNNNN, INTERNET. You are amazing. THANK YOU ALL.
I believe this milestone demands a commemorative post. One that embodies practically the entire theme of the show, and something that many of you have been requesting. For weeks. Sorry for the delay. But I figured everyone needed some space to recover from some-disgraced-cosmonaut’s mesmerizing “Downton Ladies.”
ONWARD!

Downton Abbeyoncé, now officially on Twitter!
So! For those of you who aren’t on tumblr (and even those of you who are! the more the merrier), you can also follow the blog or be friends with me on Twitter @downtonbeyonce. (I’ve actually had the account up for a while, but I was too embarrassed to say anything about it until now because I basically just learned how to use Twitter over the past few days. True story.)
Thanks to...

Passed 1300 followers on Friday the 13th!
I’d say that’s as good an omen as any. THANK YOU, EVERYONE! Loving all of your comments and ideas - I have a few more entries queued up (next post coming your way after the Sunday PBS installment!), but I’ll get to interspersing new submissions on the blog soon.
I am also (slowly) wading through my inbox to be able to respond / send messages to everyone in a proper manner - but...

By which I mean, New York Magazine! And apparently a lot of other places, too! Thanks to the internet for all the media shoutouts - because of you, I can now have a quasi-legit PRESS section on this blog. How friggin’ exciting.
Anyway, welcome to all of you beautiful followers / readers old and new, thanks for all of your comments, and keep submitting ideas! I should also probably thank...

Downton Abbey / Beyonce Crossover IN REAL LIFE. →
My Heroes and Heroines: Laura Carmichael (Telegraph UK) —
Beyoncé:
She’s a great feminist icon because she is smart, hard-working, sexy without being trashy and loves men but still retains her independence and power. When I’m in a tricky situation I often think: “What would Beyoncé do?” It helps.
I now have a whole new level of respect for Lady Edith just because Laura Carmichael...

Hallo, followers! (and anonymous patrons!)
I didn’t even know there were that many of you out there who liked both Downton Abbey and Beyonce with equal ferocity. You are all LE AWESOME.
Aside from my thanks to you all, a minor newsflash: I believe the submissions module on this blog was messed up for a bit (although the ask/comments one has been just fine - WEIRD), so if you happened to submit anything (requests, ideas, screencaps,...
