The Lizzie Bennet Diaries, known to fans as TheLBD, reframes Jane Austen’s classic novel Pride & Prejudice as an interconnected series of vlogs and social media accounts. The central YouTube account is LizzieBennet, and it was here less than a year ago that Elizabeth “Lizzie” Bennet (Ashley Clements) began her video diary with the immortal first line: “It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a wife.” Today TheLBD announced that the final episode would be episode 100, set to post on March 28th. The reaction on Tumblr was swift, as if a thousand thousand voices cried out at once at warp factor 9. This coming Monday members of the show’s writing staff will be the guests of honor at the monthly Transmedia Los Angeles meeting, moderated by yours truly. Read more about the series and the event here.
