If you're looking for just a filler period drama, go ahead and watch. But if you're looking for something with the zing of Downton or the heart of Austen, there are much better things out there.

Think of Dr Thorne as a bite-sized Downton, designed not to be too filling and maybe this and other failings will not matter as much.

If you're still clutching your handkerchief and missing Downton Abbey, you could do worse than Doctor Thorne.
May 20, 2016
The role of the Ugly American is played with such radiance by Community graduate Alison Brie that you'll pray she lives long enough to spend her golden years killing [Downton] Abbey's Dowager Countess with kindness.

The story begins to really pick up steam by episode two.

The costumes, grand English estates, and of course, British accents, also make it a worthwhile watch for those who like period pieces from across the pond.

A perfectly serviceable, occasionally adorable, utterly predictable period drama.

Doctor Thorne is lively and satirical, with tongue-in-cheek humor throughout.

Doctor Thorne was the ideal dose of predictable period drama. In fact, it almost felt like the antidote to the death, despair and desolation that came to characterise later series of Fellowes' own Downton Abbey.
