Rec. #431: Blandings, series 2
What: More delightful episodes of P.G. Wodehouse characters darting around the English countryside, getting into and out of scrapes with the patteriest patter that ever pattered.
Comparable to: It only just occurred to me that the characters in Schitt's Creek (List #59 and List #65) are pretty Wodehousian, except in a contemporary setting.
Representative dialogue:
"Unfortunately, Freddie was dropped on his head."
"How terrible!"
"Yes ... it will be."
How to get it: Stream it in the U.S. via Acorn, or buy episodes (for pretty cheap) via Amazon, Google Play, or iTunes.
Connection to previous Wreckage: Series 1 of Blandings was Rec. #379
