There's so much about '80's shows like Dynasty, etc that make me angry watching them as much older woman & the terrible messages my generation got abt rape & domestic violence. So stick to the TV version & ditch the original- it's time is over (sort of).

To escape politics & because I'm teaching #PrideandPrejudice, I watched Hallmark's "Paging Mr Darcy". If I'd only known that if I gave a lecture in Regency dress & danced w/ the organizer's hot nephew I could land a tt job at Princeton, I'd have saved myself years of research & struggle!
