There is a TV show? :D

Sorry books, no time to read you again, I got to rot my brain in front of the TV.

Or PC, since I'll likely need to torrent the show down here.

It's The Watch. It's going to be about the Watch under Vimes' watch. Seems interesting ;D

Thanks for the info. Will be fun to see.

Hope Rincewind or Bill Door gets to pop up occasionally.

Sorry! Forgot about his hat which was sewed on by somebody's sewing skills weren't as bad as their sense of grammar...

Ability to spell is optional for Discworld inhabitants anyway.

The Hogfather and Color of Magic weren't too bad.

If not for the live adaptations, I would have never discovered my obsession with all things Discworld.

A company launched by Terry himself (called Narrativia) will produce it. There will be thirteen episodes (sixty minutes long) with an overall budget of around £26 million.

It might be the dried frog pills talking but I've already gone bursar. I happily look forward to any new Discworld media that is produced.

Well, previous screen adaptations were... varied in quality, so I really don't know. In any case I'm happy that there will be simply "more" Pratchett-related stuff. :)

I'll give it a shot, but I found Going Postal very disappointing.

I think Going Postal is the best of the adaptions.

But they utterly destroyed the characters of the protagonist and antagonist. I can't forgive that.

Antagonist yes, maybe.
But I liked Moist, not exactly a carbon copy of the book version, but still good. Adorabelle was the real problem if you ask me, then again I never really liked her in the book.

I just hope they nail the casting of the Watch. It will make or break the show as far as im concerned.

Not doing the books should be a good thing. Have to see how this one turns out, and when will we get next book.

Say what? Sounds awesome. I've always loved Discworld and the Watch series is far and away the best, but does anyone know what channel it's going to be on?

I can just smell the River Ankh and taste Dibbler's sausages-inna-bun. Oddly enough, they seem like the same thing.
