For a mini-series with a supposed 25+ million dollar cost
the final product was extremely disappointing.  I noticed
a few out-of-date props such as the Mott's 1947 coffee pot
that was early 1980 design, etc.  Is there any way a mini
series can be made that doesn't include SEX!!??  I really
enjoyed the book, especially the character of Penny Pope
but, Hollywood had to cheapen her with the Norman Grant
affair.

This brings to mind a similar mini-series called 
"Pearl Harbor: the Final Days" which featured no historical
insights at all, just a few million cheating men and women
who just happened to be living in and around Pearl Harbor
the week of December 7, 1941.

Oh well, Back to MTV.
