Someone get Carson, it's arrived. Today we get a tantalizing — and "a little bootleg," as Vulture notes — glimpse of season three of Downton Abbey. Some of it is familiar — the Dowager Countess says sassy things, Bates and Anna's love is strong, but hindered — but some is not so! Shirley MacLaine is here in all of her American glory, apparently the "money is gone," and — in our opinion, most upsettingly — Lady Mary and Matthew Crawley are having problems. Can't those two crazy kids just catch a break?
