I was never a fan of the RD version of anything. I can just imagine what they would have done with this series! Me though, I am that person who love the big thick book. One where you can crawl right into and live there for a long time.

I was all set to gut it out for one more episode....As it was, some of the last ones were SO tedious and now to add on more volumes and more years?
