Hoo Boy

I don't know if I have it in me not to complain about Les Miserables.  Basically every scene of episode two had me going "Um, actually" like the world's most insufferable book nerd. 

I will attempt to resist and save my remarks until I've seen all of it.

Well, my first comment regarding this adaptation was essentially "is this not good, or am I just that sensitive about Les Miz?" and I stand by that. I genuinely don't know if I'm being fair to it.

So, it depends how you feel. If you feel strongly about it too, keep your expectations low but know that you (and/or your English lit friends) will like it at best and probably have some fun criticizing it at worst. If you don't feel strongly about it, there's a good chance that it is actually a perfectly good miniseries. And unless you're really really not interested in anything but the best I wouldn't necessarily tell you to just not watch.

Basically I would hate to discourage you from making up your own mind about it, but I am... conflicted.
