Basically what this is is the most addictive webseries ever. It's an updated version of the classic Jane Austen novel Pride and Prejudice in which our darling Lizzie Bennet has had a modern reinterpretation. Nowadays Miss Elizabeth Bennet is a communication student who has decided to start vlogging with her best friend Charlotte Lu, who yes. is Charlotte Lucas.
There are so many things to love about this series. Its greatly entertaining and hugely interesting. Not only this but it also covers the important issues mentioned in the original book in a different way. The idea of a practical marriage instead of a marriage for love.
Watch it. Seriously. You will not regret it and will become seriously addicted.
And I just really want to say I love the way this particular interpretation of Pride and Prejudice is being done. I love that Charlotte Lucas is now Charlotte Lu, Lizzies best friend who is now awesome and Asian and great and editing videos. I adore that Mr Bingley is now Bing Lee, also Asian. It's fantastic to see a classic updated in a way that actually reflects how awesomely multicultural society now is.
Lizzie is a smart funny girl with her two awesome sisters. Jane works in fashion and is the sweetest girl ever and Lydia is the craziest awesome party girl ever. And you will love them all. Did I mention they also all have twitter accounts which you can follow? Jane, Lizzie, Lydia and Charlotte. So do Caroline and Bing and yes, Mr Darcy aka William Darcy.
I don't know what else to say to convince you, but if you still haven't left this page to go watch this show, well why the hell not?
Oh and by the way, it is partially produced by one half of the epic vlogbrothers, Hank Green.
Go watch! Now!
