This meme has been really fun, and it has certainly brought me attention! I have new projects to focus on, but I thought one masterpost for Austen + The Onion would be helpful. Without further ado!
The posts, and a few of my favorites:
Pride and Prejudice 2005: Part 1, Part 2, Part 3
Sense and Sensibility 1995: Part 1, Part 2
Pride and Prejudice 1995: Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4, Part 5
