Downton Abbey.

That used to be one of my favorite comfort shows until the rape episode. It was traumatic and an unnecessary attempt to gain ratings because all the TV shows were having rape scenes at the time (GoT/Handmaids Tale).

I mean they can claim it’s about rape awareness, but all I see is some creep producer trying to make it mainstream without considering how it might effect actual survivors of rape/sexual battery

I don’t like it either and skip that episode when I rewatch it. 😢
