    I've become a big fan of this show.

    However, if it's going to stay true (as much as a TV show can) to history, I don't see how much longer it can air. (Or at least it will end on quite a set of downers...)

    A really well designed, nicely written and boastfully well scored television show which has become a rather polished and effective piece of British Drama into its third season.

    I really am disappointed with this program. So much has obviously been invested to make it look like
    the old "Upstairs, Downstairs" or even Downton Abbey but someone has forgotten to make the characters interesting, the dialogue engaging, or the acting masterful. And if Mr. Selfridge is as portrayed by the lead actor, I am surprised that the store got off the ground. Sorry, folks, this

    Still impressively detailed and masterfully assembled, the show again focuses on the classed relations among employees and employers, relations that can be both supportive and dysfunctional, and, increasingly, affected by external forces.

    A series that is improving with age.

    The personal and professional problems of the shop’s myriad employees feel tedious and redundant, but at least Jeremy Piven has toned down his bombastic performance in the titular role.
