It's darned good.

Liking it meant that I appreciated so many scenes of the recent mini-series.

It also meant I was furious with a few of the stupider things they did, and utterly disappointed by one particular thing they left out.

If you spoiler tag it mind adding which part of the book they left out?

There are many things, but only one that really mattered to me.

I know, we all have different things to find bothersome. I could shrug off the crunched timeline. A little. Okay, so my teeth hurt. That thing they skipped, though, I think they ought to have had it in there.
