I must admit that this may be my favorite adaption of Austen's Pride and Prejudice. What is even more shocking is when I read P&P, I pretty much couldn't stand Lydia. In many of the movies, I couldn't stand her as well. However, in The Lizzie Bennet Diaries, I love Lydia. She is hysterical, over the top, and fun. I really felt for her more in this adaption than the book.
So, anyone else obsessed and addicted?
If you are a fan of Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice or simply want to check out that awesomness that is The Lizzie Bennet Diaries, check out the YouTube page or their tumblr to get started. Before you know it, you'll be on episode 60.
I'm SO addicted! I like Lydia, but she still is a bit on my nerves, but at least I like her a little more in this one.

ReplyDeleteYou should, Nina! It's really good! Thanks for visiting.
DeleteWhile I love the '95, 2005 and this version for various reasons, I too am addicted! It is SO good! I also agree with Lydia: this adaptation does the best job with showing her side of things and giving her so much depth as a character and as a person!
ReplyDeleteI am going to have to make time to give this show a try! I have a feeling I'll end up addicted to it too as I love P&P.
ReplyDeleteI am so behind on The Lizzie Bennet Diaries! I got so busy and stopped watching after about 20 episodes or so...I really need to start again from the beginning and catch up!
ReplyDeleteTotally agree about Lydia - she's awesome. :)
