Fun Stuff

Trivia:
Something of a mystery surrounds Lovejoy's daughter. In "Lovejoy: Sugar and Spice (#2.8)" (1991), Lady Jane mentions that Lovejoy has just one daughter. In Season 1, she is called Kate and is played by 'Charlotte Edwards'; in Seasons 2 and 3, she is called Vicky and is played by Amelia Shankley; in Season 6 her name is spelled Viki and she is played by Amelia Curtis. Despite information to the contrary on some web sites, Amelia Shankley and Amelia Curtis are not the same actress. more

Very few series anymore give me a warm feeling. You know, the feeling you get when you're watching a show that 'feels like home'. Lovejoy was a show like that, it really made me feel comfortable.

Unfortunately, I don't think there will be shows like Lovejoy anymore. There are few newer series that have come close. One of them is Frasier, although they don't make it anymore either. Maybe I should just watch the older series over and over again, shows like Jeeves and Wooster, The Prisoner, Red Dwarf, etc.
