I had heard that this was a bad, so I never bothered to check it out until recently. Good lord this mini-series is a travesty. Everything is wrong with this.

Here is my interpretation of the board room that greenlit this.

Question: How do you handle an adaptation of one of the most popular books by a world renowned author?

Answer: Throw out everything that made the book great and do something different.

The show managed to be rushed and really slow at the same time.

You fuck with Parker Lewis, and you lose. Plain and simple.

Plus anything with Amber Heard is kinda doomed.

Parker Lewis, Molly Ringwald, Gary Sinese, Rob Lowe, and Dauber from Coach!

I’ve seen that miniseries way too many times.
