We were SO relieved to see this photo of Jeremy Piven filming season 3 of Mr Selfridge. It’s so easy to get hooked on this true story of a London department store and we feared it wouldn’t come back. We absolutely love this Masterpiece Theater presentation partly because we enjoy retailing, and this story reveals all the evolving fashion, manners, and women’s position in society – all in the first years of the 20th century. Wartime romance, subterfuge, conniving shopgirls, closeted gay designers. – it’s all there. To be honest we love it more than Downton Abbey and can’t WAIT for season 3.

OMYGOSH YES YES YES. I totally AGREE (ITA) with everything you have said. The first season of Mr. Selfridge was just okay but second season revved up.. and redeemed the series.
Plus, I find the real story such a life lesson.
Downton Abbey had only two good epi’s (the very first show and when the husband died)..
It’s completely contrived rubbish. Piven is a disgrace.
so dump your husband, ladies!!
this actor is so unlikeable, so unattractive that the show is barely watchable for me.
I don’t know this guy personally but I can not stand his ass.
I don’t watch it because I don’t care for him.
Love the show; however, it is heavily fictionalized.
