I don't mind so much when it's sort of a wish fulfillment thing, because I can get down with that particular fantasy. The thing that springs to mind here is the Wimsey novels - Dorothy Sayers made the main character a wealthy aristocrat precisely because she didn't have any money and she wanted to fantasize about being able to spend as much as she wanted.

It does bother me when the show or book just completely takes it for granted and is completely unaware of how privileged the characters are. It completely throws me out of the story.

+1, if it's a light canon or escapism is the whole point, I'm fine (Miss Fisher, for example). If it's Downton Abbey and we're supposed to sympathise with those rich wankers at the expense of everyone else, hell no. Eat the rich.
