Tumblr crosspost (19 September 2019)

i’ve just discovered the existence of a show called ‘death comes to pemberly’... presumably you’ve heard of it, since you know so much about p&p lol. would you recommend it? it seems intriguing...
I replied:
I have heard of it, yes! I opted not to watch it, in part because what little I saw of the book was terribad, and in part because I was (and remain) deeply bitter that glorified fanfic was what they chose to do for the bicentennial instead of P&P itself.
Even the positive reviews sounded pretty “nope” to me (esp re: Elizabeth), so I never did watch it.
