Mr Selfridge Season 3

DVD Wholesale Quick Overview:

I loved seasons 1 & 2. But season 3 is quite a disappointment! I’m finishing the series because I loved the first two seasons so much I kept hoping it would return to its former charm (that, and I’m recovering from back surgery, so being stuck in bed leaves me few options).

This season, the storylines have veered far from anything near the realm of truth of the actual Mr. Selfridge’s life. They are overly dramatic and ridiculous. Almost as ridiculous as the Tointon sister’s (Selfridge sister’s) acting… Really, really bad! They are British, it turns out, speaking in American accents, which is over done and it sounds like they’re at best, over enunciating, but more likely yelling their lines.

My last criticism is for the hairstylist. What is the deal?! Most of the curly hairstyles (which by the way, while I’m no expert, I don’t think are at all appropriate for the time period), look the way mine did as a 10 year old, the morning after I took out those pink styrofoam curlers my mom put in the morning before; Frizzy and out of control.

What a delight! Every episode of Mr. Selfridge is a feast for the eyes: the costumes, window displays, street scenes, merchandise on display and so much more are incredibly and happily stimulating visually. And what of the plot? Well, no spoilers here, just suffice it to say that this charming period drama is a soap for people who don’t like soaps. The performances? Stellar! But, you know that if you’re on season 3. You’ve come this far, take the plunge and watch on! Can your life ever be complete without knowing the fates of these unforgettable Characters?
