Set in England in the early 19th century, Pride and Prejudice tells the story of Mr and Mrs Bennet's five unmarried daughters after the rich and eligible Mr Bingley and his status-conscious friend, Mr Darcy, have moved into their neighbourhood. While Bingley takes an immediate liking to the eldest Bennet daughter, Jane, Darcy has difficulty adapting to local society and repeatedly clashes with the second-eldest Bennet daughter, Elizabeth.

Perfect adaptation and casting! Blows doors on the more recent cinematic version.

This adaptation is very faithful to the original, which makes the length of it make sense. However that doesn't necessarily make it very good, because it seems a few characters have been very misunderstood when acted and others just poorly acted. There are a few diversions from the book, but whenever they appear they feel random and without cause. The reason I still rate it highly is because it's still Pride And Prejudice, the story is great and they didn't ruin it completely, but they did take a masterpiece and water it down, unfortunately. I will note, that I did actually enjoy the show very much even though it's nowhere near as good as reading the book or watching the 2005 adaptation.

The best adaptation of "Pride and Prejudice", much better than the later version with Keira Knightley as Elizabeth Bennet. This version never gets old and you can watch it multiple times, always finding something new in it. Adaptation of great literary work and at the same time fantastic comfort show that can cheer you up, P&P is spellbinding and definitely a must-watch. I guess it is not the last time I watched this show as I am sure to come back to it once in a while just to revisit an old friend.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen a Jane Austen adaption, except for Clueless when I was too young to appreciate it. But somewhere along the way the culture forgot to impress upon me that Jane Austen is funny. (IMDB lists this show as a “Drama” and a “Romance”.) I find myself kind of incredul More

**Look no further, in film or TV: this is, so far, the best adaptation of "Pride and Prejudice".**

Whenever a film or television production decides to make a period production, it will always have two major challenges ahead. The first is, obviously, the result of any and all production. The secon More

I decided to watch this mini-series again after seeing the later movie version, which caused me to realized that maybe I enjoyed that version more. In my memory, I originally had recalled I liked this movie version more.

And watching this series confirmed that I do like the Keira Knightly movie More
