I think that I mentioned before that we\u00a0have all of the Bramwell DVDs… And, since we do, we are able to take our time watching them. I thought that I had seen the entire series when it first aired on PBS… Now that I have just finished re-watching the entire series, I find that I hadn’t actually seen the last (fourth)\u00a0season.<\/p>\n

I watched the series years ago when Masterpiece Theatre aired it. A few years ago I decided that we would enjoy the series as a family, so we got all of the DVDs. We waited to watch them when both of our college-age children were home, so it took us a while to watch all of the discs.\u00a0 Our son watched the first season with us and decided that it wasn’t something he wanted to stay with, so we went on without him.\u00a0And, our daughter comes home so infrequently, that it has taken us a long time to finish the series.<\/p>\n

If there are any people out there who are thinking of watching the series: I would highly recommend the first three seasons. Everything I said in the initial post<\/a> about the Bramwell series still stands.<\/p>\n

HOWEVER!!!!!>>>>><\/p>\n

I would stop watching the series after the third season.\u00a0It appears to be\u00a0quite evident that they had planned on finishing the series after the third season…\u00a0They had a definite completion (of sorts), with all of the characters seemingly knowing what they were going to be doing\u00a0in the\u00a0future. I would not<\/strong> recommend the fourth season. (It seemed like they simply tacked the fourth season on to the first three excellent seasons.)<\/strong>\u00a0I won’t state the reasons since there are people out there who may be planning on watching all of the series’ discs, but be forewarned, the fourth season doesn’t stand up to the other three seasons’ level of excellence! My husband, daughter and I were left wondering who these characters were, since they were so “out-of-sorts” with the well-developed characters we “knew” from the first three seasons. Certainly, if we had started watching the series\u00a0with the\u00a0fourth season, we never would have watched the first three excellent seasons… That’s how much we disliked the new personalities of the old characters!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
