There's a really interesting program right now on PBS, called The Complete Jane Austen. It's from a few months ago, when they started the Jane Austen marathon back in January, explaining who Austen is and why she is so popular and giving sneak peaks at the TV adapations from the marathon they were going to have.

There's nothing in it that I really ( Read more... )

Oh, Colin Firth as Mr. Darcy is so great! He looks too pretty in the period costumes. My old roommate and I had a marathon brunch-and-Mr. Darcy day when we watched the whole miniseries and ate ourselves into food comas. It was fun, let me just tell you! :D

He does look good in period costumes, especially the frilly shirts! :D

That sounds like fun! (Darcy and food comas....yum lol) Sadly, the only person I know who likes P&P is my sister, but she only likes the new movie version. I keep trying to get her to watch the better (in my mind) version, but so far no luck.

Oh, god, SO MUCH BETTER than the new one. But, of course, I say this without having seen the new one. My roommate assured me that it wasn't really worth watching. I just...guh, Colin Firth. Why settle for any less?

And um, just bring her in for the lake scene, and then she'll be hooked! :D

It's ok. I mean, if you're looking for a quick version of it, then it's alright. But it does not compare at all with the Firth version.

HAHA I should do that. I'd be hooked, not even knowing what it was about or who it was XD

Yeah, I make people watch the end of "Trash" when I want to get them into Firefly. Naked Nathan Fillion is SO MUCH the best thing to get people into it! (See my icon for proof!)

Good strategy!
To me, you would have to be insane to not find that as enough motivation to watch the show. Forget the whole 'cowboys in space' theme, or the fact that it's done by Whedon, Fillion naked is more than enough reason to sit through the series lol

(I so need a Firefly icon, but I doubt it would be as good(looking) as yours XD)

Awesome, thanks!

I'm gonna have to get a paid account one of these days, so I can go crazy with the icons.

Yeah, the increased number of icons is pretty much the biggest reason that I got a paid account! :D
