My roommate and I just got through watching the second episode of Jeeves and Wooster, and I would like to relate that this directly resulted in the both of us dancing in the hallways of the dormitory in a happy manner and reading out quotes from the books.

At this point, a friend of ours who had been attending a party came in, complaining about said party. He was, as Jeeves might say, somewhat under the surface. After a few minutes of witnessing our little display, he remarked "I'm drunk, and *I'm* more coherent than you. Also, you're giggling a lot more."

Conclusion: Wodehouse. Much better than alcohol and parties. QED.

I'm absolutely in love with the series...There are a thousand tiny details -- Bertie taking Jeeves' pocketwatch out of his coat to check the time, for instance -- that really make the whole thing work. Considering how easy this series would have been to foul up royally, I'm thrilled and impressed.

Right...apologies for the gratuitous fangirling -- it's late.
