I feel like it all applies to Sherlock as well. But perhaps the key is that the target audience is older than that of Sherlock, Avengers, Doctor Who and Merlin. Downton is more for family-loving housewives, not for overexcited teens.

NA

The "too many women" doesn't apply to Sherlock. I think target audience is a large factor, though. You'll see Teen Wolf tossed into the mix pretty often, too.

TW has a mostly male cast, fantasy setting.

I think it has more major female characters than SPN or Sherlock.

And? The fandom isn't remotely about them, it's about Derek and Stiles, with a smaller side dish of the rest of the male cast.

And Downton Abbey also has hot guyz which are drool-over-able, if fandom were going to do that. Evidently not so much.

DA's cast is still mostly female.

TW is a dickfest sprinkled with, what, three major women. Much more to fandom's taste. Not remotely comparable.

Fine, the reason tumblr doesn't luuuv Downton Abbey is because too much of the cast is female. Are you happy now?

*Sherlock* isn't a geek fandom? *Sherlock* has too many women? What?

Ooh, I presume they meant "too many female characters". Sorry, I just thought that that was "too many women" as in "too many female fans". My inner word processor breaks sometimes

The person in my family who is the most involved in Downton Abbey? My super, super nerdy dad. He is hooked.
