Wie haben uns Die Leiden des jungen Werther angeſchaut und es war eine ſehr intereſſante Inſzenierung! Da wurde es tatſächlich einmal geſchafft, ein Stück zu moderniſieren und zu abſtrahieren und dabei dennoch nah am Werk - und vor allem anderen auch noch ſehenswert und verſtändlich zu bleiben! Ich denke, ich ſpreche da für alle, wenn ich ſchreibe, das es eine wundervolle Aufführung war!

what is the actual reason???

enter polyband who release DVDs for the German market without the OV (it‘s 2020 and I‘m waiting a month for a British DVD of an international production because no legal streaming of the OV is available in Germany. on that account also kinda fuck HBO)

is it final? cause as far as I know there are funding and copyright issues due to the fact that canadian national televison co-funded the series and now apparently opted out of all co-work with netflix in order to not ruin their homemarket - which in theory would mean netflix could still pick this up?

I read all of these books and so did probably a lot of other people who read M&C obviously because all of them are classics but why would you tell your algorithm that? (idk how it works, this is step 1 towards an easy explanation)

You see, I thought the algorithm was recommending stuff based on genre/topic, and it does do that sometimes. (With slightly greater success if it’s not classics; none of the classics recs work very well). 

But apparently your explanation - ‘other users also bought liked’ - also seems to be part of the algorithm. 

So right now I think they’re doing both, and it’s not working. At all. 

that american boy kept me reading (him, and Mina obviously)

Yay! Thank you! 

T - Tom Branson, from Downton Abbey (a long, long time ago... of course I’d love the Irish socialist. Predictable? Me? Nooooo!) 

I - Duke Isgrimnur, from Tad Williams’ Memory, Sorrow & Thorn series. 

M - Bishop Myriel, from Les Misérables 

B - Mr Bush, from CS Forrester’s Hornblower books (and the minisieries, tbh; he definitely has the humour dear Horatio lacks at times) 

V - I’m gonna be really creative here and say Jean Valjean, also from Les Misérables (I swear I genuinely like him!) 

(Can you tell I’m running out of characters whose names start with T?) 

Ohoho, looking forward to reading it? on here? on goodreads? (as I liked the book just fine...for the 'male honour' theme)
