Sensible Superbowl Alternative

What brilliance! A genteel alternative to football ... just like last year.

An encore presentation of MASTERPIECE CLASSIC's Emmy-nominated Sense and Sensibility begins Sunday, February 1, 2009. A young cast of Britain's most buzzed about talent (Hattie Morahan, Charity Wakefield, Dan Stevens) daringly captures the Dashwood's fall from grace in a vulnerable and seductive adaptation by Andrew Davies.

Once again PBS ... thank you. My new Jane Austen action figure will be joining me in Austenfest Sunday (thanks to Jane, who read my letter to Santa). Perhaps if I get up early enough I can watch Emma, Persuasion, Mansfield Park, and two of my versions of Pride and Prejudice before hand.

Huzzah!
