This was blogged on BoingBoing a bit back, but I haven't seen it broadcast further, and it deserves to be seen: a modern-setting retelling of Pride and Prejudice in the form of Lizzie's video blog. Lizzie, Jane, and Lydia (those three are the only sisters, so already you can see where this is going), plus Charlotte, are the only on-screen characters so far, though between them, with varying degrees of enthusiasm, they have play-acted their parents, Bingley, Darcy, and each other. It's amusing and well-written, at least in the small doses available so far. As of the moment there's six episodes, which gets them up to about Chapter 4. I wait with anticipation for the arrival of Mr. Collins in Chapter 13.

The YouTube user page is here. Start at the bottom with Episode 1. "Snobby Mr. Douchey Part 1" is Episode 6.
