argh, hi.

I did a fair amount of adulting today. I should, on my to-do list, be writing porn or catching up on my current season TV backlog or cleaning the kitchen. Instead, I'm watching Persuasion because it's on Amazon Prime, and I can't remember whether I've actually seen it or just commentary whenever they made the most recent Austen thingers.

I've just noticed that this, the Sense and Sensibility with Emma Thompson, and the BBC Pride and Prejudice miniseries were all 1995, and I'm pretty sure those are the only productions I've seen - not counting, like, Clueless (also 1995!).

I definitely haven't seen Kiera Knightly's P&P and I'm pretty sure I passed on Gwyneth Paltrow's Emma as well.

She just watched the Knightly one so she could yell at it. I rather liked it. Oh well.

I liked the newer version of Persuasion with the dishy blond Wentworth, and the Mansfield Park with Billie Piper. I'd avoid Lost in Austen, though I like the cast.
