Here’s the whole thing. It’s best Christmas special ever. Here’s the theme summed up at the end as a trailer. It’s fucking fantastic

      The recent series adaptation? I loved that one, I don’t get why people get so mad about it. I really don’t care for perfect fidelity of the material if it does interesting stuff with it tbh.

        I really liked the bizarre setting they did, Fantasy London becomes A Medieval Sci fi city in the south african desert? Fantastic. Vimes running around dressed like a pirate with smoky eyeshadow? Great! I think though the whole story and writing was a mistake. Like even if you divorce it entirely from Discworld (which they should have done) its just not a very well written story.

          The visual quality of set and costume design in general has been getting really fucking cool for a while now. But the writing attached to whatever adaptation they’re butchering this year has rarely kept up with it.
