I just started to read the Jeeves and Wooster novels as well as watching the TV adaptation and I love it! There is so much slashy potiental for it. Hugh and Stephen just bring out every slashy aspect of the stories. There is just something about them that you cannot take your eyes off of. I'm glad to see Wodehouse fan fiction and I've enjoyed everything I've read on this community.

My parents, who I've been sharing the joys of Jeeves and Wooster with, and I got into a discussion about the best episode of the TV series. Now I've only seen through half of season 3 (I think it's season 3, but they just left America) but my favorite, and in my opinion the most shinning in slashliness, Jeeves in the Country (I think that's the title), where Jeeves and Bertie split over the trombone. My question I immediately thought of after that episode was how Bertie ever lived without Jeeves in the first place. Anyone else have a favorite episode or story from the book series that really shows the slash?

I LOVE the ones where they're in America!!!! I just saw them last night. They are FABULOUS. There's one in particular... ummmm... the episode AFTER "Bertie Sets Sail," I think. There's a scene with Bertie and Jeeves playing the piano together that is SO CUTE.

Also? I farkin' adore Rocky to little teeny bits. ^^

I generally like the British episodes best, but I love the bit where Rocky is like, "Could he make it a little clearer, Bertie?" and Bertie has to translate Jeevestalk for him! And I'm totally with him on the "pyjama: informal/pyjama with sweater: formal" method. What a disgusting use of punctuation! Jeeves would be appalled. :) And now when I see them play piano I keep thinking of the "Piano Master" sketch. "Cock nice and high, high as you can!" Hope someone knows the context for that one. :)

"I said we don't want any stiffness."
I always think of that too. I adore that sketch. Not quite as marvelous as the language sketch ("Why oh why oh why has the word gay been so ruthlessly highjacked from our beloved English language?")
