Same with Downton Abbey. A lot of fans seem drawn to the opulent castles and hordes of servants but one of the themes of the show is the disappearance of these things due to their innate incestuous purposelessness. The main characters only barely hang on to their lifestyle by increasingly embracing the ascendance of the middle-class.
