cyranoAlso? Nobody loves Charles Dickens more than I do. Except perhaps Captain Jenkins. And maybe my wife. And some of her friends. Come to think of it, most everybody loves Charles Dickens more than I do. But.
It still annoys the crap out of me when PBS refers to Bleak House as 'the companion novel to the miniseries' as if somebody at WGN approached Charlie and said 'Hey, we're thinking of doing a miniseries--want to write a companion piece for it? We're paying by the word!'
