I guess I just don't mind it. I like the modern twist and the chutzpah Amanda brings to the story.
But like I said, everyone has their own opinion.
I'm on the fence, I thought it might be charming but I think actually it's just a bit cheap. I love P&P so much and thought an updated one would be cool but at times I find it almost too embarrassing to watch, but I do think Amanda can be really cute at times. I'm not so bothered by the historical inaccuracies and inconsistencies as it's meant to be fun, but i think the production values are generally poor and the Darcy just seems a bit 1D and not gorgeous enough!
However, I think Alex Kingston is great as mrs.bennet, she's prob my fave mrs.bennet and isn't as crazy over the top like so many others.
All in all I think I'll stick with Keira if I'm feeling in need of a quick fix (i find her Darcy SO gorgeous!) or the old bbc one if I have a whole afternoon lots of tea and some chocolate
I missed the start of Tess so it's one for bbc iplayer
I like Hardy (aside from mayor of casterbridge, forever ruined by GCSe eng lit exam!) alot and could do with a new costume drama before I go over to the darkside and watch that Duchess film
