It's summertime and that means it's time to cover classic literature adaptations. This summer we are skipping over direct Pride & Prejudice fare (Katie is team 1995 & Abby is team 2005 for the record). Instead, we are looking at the universe of P&P adaptations and will cover 3 categories: Modernizing P&P- Fire Island, Bridget Jone's Diary, Bride and Prejudice, and The Lizzie Bennet DiariesAusten Influence on Modern Women- Jane Austen Wrecked My Life, Lost in Austen, and AustenlandP&P Universe...With a Twist- Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, Death Comes to Pemberley, and the long anticipated The Other Bennet Sister!Join us to hash out all the ways to keep thinking about the Bennets and Austen forevermore. Extra Credit Reading: It's not mentioned here, as it hasn't yet been adapted, but the novel Longbourn by Jo Baker is great and sure to head to screens eventually. It follows a young servant in the Bennet household, living her life while the events of P&P occur in the background.Extra Credit Watching: Keeley Hawes is excellent as Jane's sister Cassandra in the Miss Austen series. Becoming Jane and Miss Austen Regrets are also Jane-centered stories worth a watch. The Jane Austen Book Club explores Austen's stories influencing the modern women reading them.Happy summer reading and watching- We're all team Jane!Tell us about your hidden gem episode, or anything else, here!Did we get it right or wrong?

Abby and Katie are having a hard time sticking to one show we are so obsessed with everything you can watch on PBS, especially if you support public media with their Passport to all past shows. Are we into true crime? Not really, but if you give us an offbeat detective of any kind on a PBS show we are already there with popcorn in hand. Performances of all kinds abound on this platform, and we dive into our favorites in the PBS universe. Some titles discussed include All Creatures Great and Small, The Puzzle Lady, Finding Your Roots, Wolf Hall, Endeavor, Bookish, The Magpie Murders, and many more!Tell us about your hidden gem episode, or anything else, here!Did we get it right or wrong?

Abby and Katie welcome special guest, and SATC expert, Viann to discuss this classic NYC series of fairy tale meets reality. Will we wax poetic, with Charlottesque wonder at what the IMDB voters selected as the best episode of the series? Or more likely come in swinging like Miranda, with some blunt rebuttals of our own? Either way, we'll be doing so with Carrie-like wit, and a side of Samantha's saucy takes.Tell us about your hidden gem episode, or anything else, here!Did we get it right or wrong?
