Many TV series have faded but not so Clarissa. We yearn to see it once more and yet again and again.

Quotes:
[Grandfather Harlowe has died and left the entire estate and wealth to his younger granddaughter, Clarissa]
Bella: Imagine! Leaving all the family paintings to her, just because she used to tickle with him! And wipe and clean with her own dainty fingers.
James: [taking Bella's hand] Dainty? Whose fingers could be daintier than these?
Bella: He might just as well have left them to the maid.

Please when will Clarissa be shown on TV again and when will it be available commercially? What are the reasons it hasn't been available as yet? After all these years I still can recall how good it was. I want my children now they are older to have the opportunity of appreciating it more. The story was so intriguing and the character of Lovelace a very complex and interesting person. Even though he was a rake he still had good points and cared for his workers who were loyal to him. He was a proud and vengeful man. This was his downfall and he lost everything even his life which in the end he was glad to give to make up for what he had done to Clarissa. He genuinely cared for her but sullied it. And then to learn that she could have loved him but he spoilt it for always and it was lost for ever.
