So today is the first Monday in a looooong time (well not counting the Pemberley arc week hiatus) sans a new episode of the Lizzie Bennet Diaries. As I know many of us are a bit bummed about it, I offer up my humble tribute sorts to the Lizzie Bennet Diaries and Pride and Prejudice.

P and P: The Real Story, a new audio/visual recording of Jane Austen’s beloved Pride and Prejudice performed in its entirety by myself (Janine Hegarty) with illustrations inspired by the Lizzie Bennet Diaries. The project hopes to introduce views to one or both works or celebrate their love of them.

Each episode contains one full chapter of Austen’s classic text along with illustrations (aka stick figure interpretations of the action) and a short vlog. This is the first episode/chapter of the book entitled Meet the Mr. and Mrs. Bennet.

Like, Reblog, and Share should you so desire!

So in the craziness of the past month, I completely spaced posting this appropriately... Blerg. ANYWHO, the 2nd part of P and P: The Real Story’s eagerly awaited eighth episode with the amazing Josephine Ho.

In the second half of this episode Josephine and discuss cards vs. reading and most importantly Jo's requirements for some one to be labeled "truly accomplished." Naturally silliness abounds. And in the wonderful wide of Austen, we get the first major confrontation between Darcy and Elizabeth. Steamy.

And as always, the episode contains another juicy chapter (well half of a chapter in this case) of Jane Austen's delightful and timeless Pride and Prejudice with epic stick figures inspired by the LIZZIE BENNET DIARIES.

P and P series regular with another fab podcast!

In Jurassic Park, were those velociraptors actually vicious? Or just lacking some tea time caffeine? According to NY-based stand-up comedian, actor, writer and improviser, Sasheer Zamata, it’s most certainly the latter. We took a tea time break to discuss Sasheer’s circus skills, the…

Auspicious day... YAY 200th anniversary of Pride and Prejudice. Naturally, I could not let such a momentous occasion go by the wayside without some form of celebration/homage. P and P: The Real Story's eagerly awaited eighth episode!!! (Apologies for the massive delays. Beta attempts to shorten the process proved unsuccessful... plus there were more elaborate "drawings.") Join me and my special guest, Josephine Ho, while we catch up, discuss the infamous lake scene from Pride and Prejudice, the challenges of playing men and typecasting. And are just plain silly. Oh! This video contains the first half of the eighth chapter of Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice. Be sure to stay tuned for the second part of the episode for the remainder of chapter 8 and more ridiculous chatter between Josephine and yours truly.

Claire Ayoub, series regular, with another new edition of her epically delightful podcast!!!

I grew up on a steady diet of I Love the 80s and CBS Sunday Morning. So, when I got the chance to travel over to CBS Studios for a tea time break with Mo Rocca, I was simply over the moon. The man is simply AMAZING. Between endlessly fascinating pieces on Sunday Morning, cooking with…

The delightful series regular, Claire Ayoub, has an extra special guest on her podcast this week. May not be Jane Austen, but pretty darn close to the level of awesome: AVERY MONSEN!!!! (Author and Illustrator of All My Friends Are Dead)

You know that show Catfish on MTV? The one where people meet on the internet and form these insane relationships only to discover that one person lied about everything and really lives in a bucket under the local Red Lobster instead of on his family’s 500 acre ranch like he said?

Well, I…

Episode 6 pt 2: And we are back for part 2 of the sixth installment of P and P: The Real Story. Shannon Vinson joins me again to tackle this exciting chapter of Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice. Shannon takes me on in another round of what has become P and P: The Real Story's signature game-Crazy Chain! And this installment's character seed? Caroline Bingley. 

In terms of the novel itself, Episode 6 Part 2 wraps up the sixth chapter of Austen's Pride and Prejudice, resolving that nasty little cliffhanger from part 1 (Just who is watching Lizzie?) and gives us a bit more info about Darcy (perhaps not as bad as we thought) and Caroline Bingley (one definitely to be watched).

Part 2 will be up soon. Still experiencing some delays in the aftermath of Sandy. (A special shout out to Bess Rowen for letting me use the internet and power!)

Episode 5: Meet the Lucas's

In this fifth installment P and P: The Real Story's third episode, I am please to welcome Kat Chen, another Dead Serious Alum (improv comedy group) and my baby sonnet sister (XOXi), to the show. Join us before the magic of another unabridged, fully illustrated chapter from Austen's Pride and Prejudice for a game of crazy chain and six degrees of Kevin Bacon to prove that everything does in fact relate to Jane Austen. In addition to Kat and I generally making fools of ourselves, dpisode 5 contains chapter five of Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice in which readers/viewers are given a chance to meet the Lucas family and be a fly on the wall as Charlotte and Lizzie discuss the happenings of the Meryton Assembly.

BRAVO.

I’m all about watching The Lizzie Bennet Diaries lately. I don’t even feel guilty for firing up YouTube at work and spending five minutes watching the new eps every Monday and Thursday morning. Or not TOO guilty. ;-)

Like many viewers, watching the series has sent me back to re-read the novel and...

Episode 4: Jane and Lizze Recap

Join the brilliant Bess Rowen, my second lovely guest and myself for the fourth episode of P and P: The Real Story. If you enjoy Bess, and let's be honest who doesn't, check her out on http://www.huffingtonpost.com/bess-rowen/ Episode 4 contains the fourth chapter of the first volume of Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice in which Jane gushes over Bingley and readers/viewers learn more about two of the major leading men of P & P. In addition, Bess and I play a game of crazy chain and chat about her favorite adaptation of Pride and Prejudice (hint, it involves Colin Firth). Naturally, as Bess is a Ph.D. candidate, we also get down to some serious theorizing (NOT!) about Austen's role in the genesis of all cinematic romantic comedies. Added to the mix is an exciting potential new theme song for P and P: The Real Story!

Hey everyone,

So I’m seeing a lot of people nominating The Lizzie Bennet Diaries and all the writers and actors for the Streamy Awards, and that’s awesome. We appreciate the support so much and it’s just amazing to see you all back the show to the level you all have.

Personally the Streamys...
