‘Downton Abbey’s’ intrigue continues (baltmoresun)

It’s 1916 and love and politics are afoot this season, upstairs and down.

The many-chambered, highly peopled country house known as “Downton Abbey”
opens again Sunday for visitors — that’s you, I’m being metaphorical –
returning for a second season under the umbrella of PBS series “Masterpiece
Classic.” It is classic not for being based on some famous old book — it is
an original work for television, created by Julian Fellowes (“Gosford Park”)
– but because it is a period piece set in a world we associate with famous
old books and, in a secondary way, with “Masterpiece Theater” itself, home of
the similar, chronologically overlapping “Upstairs, Downstairs” and the
primary domestic expression of the Anglo-American “special relationship,”
television branch, since 1971.

Chris Rock – Bigger and Blacker $8.82 Comedian Chris Rock makes a raucous return to his stand-up roots in this HBO special filmed at Harlem’s legendary Apollo Theater. Despite his manic and profane delivery, Rock’s comedy is often rooted in traditional subjects for comedians: family relationships, misunderstandings between men and women, and observations on how childhood has changed. But he takes his material right to the edge, prov…

Sade – Live Concert Home Video $6.74 This impressive record of Sade’s 1994 live peformances reminds us of just how much her distinctive sound combines languorously emotional pop with lightweight but musically fulfilling cocktail jazz. As fine as the voice is, we can never forget that Sade’s backing band are sidemen rather than mere accompanists, and in several of the 18 numbers here we get solos of real virtuosity. The selection…
