go back to the past to discover the future
You can go back to the past to discover the future -- and you don't need a nutty professor's DeLorean who is a fan of tales from the crypt to do it. Instead, there are three television series that will accomplish the deed with exceptional grace and intelligence. And some sex and violence.The three are: Downton Abbey, Boardwalk Empire and Mildred Pierce. That is one British entry and two American.Each is for mature audiences. Each is a period piece set during the first third of the 20th Century. Each is populated with great characters in Desperate Housewives Seasons 1-6 , superbly acted. Each is a distillation of dramatic situations. Each contains insight into social change that, studied closely, relates to how we live today.Plus all three are newly available in the home entertainment market. Downton Abbey: Season 2 just debuted as a three-disc Blu-ray. It is a perfect complement to the existing two-disc Blu-ray with the seven episodes of season one (although the cover simply says Downton Abbey, with no reference to the season). These are the original British broadcast versions. There are also DVD versions such as the tribe box set 1-5 of both seasons but I don't have them for review and cannot vouch for their quality
