Am I surprised the cultural vandals have started to tear down Austen and Dickens no, feeling rage inside yes. What can I do but refuse to watch and inform people what is happening.

This will not last forever. Preserve older copies of the works, so that future generations can compare them.

Dreary, boring, cultural destruction. What a waste of time.

Meh. There’s an episode of “Wagon Train” that’s based on “Great Expectations. Easier than writing something original, I suppose.

I’ll pass. I watch period pieces to escape modern life, not to be lectured.

Brit box has all the classics

Watch those.

Let people know what the real ones are like.

Probably would not be a bad idea to copy them off if that can be done.

Miss Havisham as a hophead would actually explain a lot. The rest sounds like nonsense.

That all sounds disgusting. Leave it to the perverts to take masterpieces and turn them into crap.

Remember when Hollywood would cast, say, Doris Day as Estella and Rock Hudson as Pip, and change the story around so Miss Havisham was just kidding and was really Ann Miller doing tap dance numbers?

Times haven't changed.
