- There was some Wodehouse on TV about 15 years ago. I don't remember
- which stories they did, although I could look it up. They did not
- involve Wooster, but another recurring British Layabout.
-
- What I _do_ remember is watching the plot get incredibly tangled, then,
- in the last minute or so of the show, everything would come out so
- everyone had exactly what they wanted. I would be sitting there with
- my mouth hanging open in amazement. Then I hit the bookstores and started
- buying Wodehouse books.
-
- I didn't know what I was getting myself in for.
-
- And, btw, what do you _call_ Wodehouse fans? Is there a term? Any suggestions?
