The Lizzie Bennet Diaries: Difference between revisions

Line 16:

** And Tumblrs. Also Facebook accounts. The characters are quite convincingly established across the internet, overall.

* [[Damned By Faint Praise]]: The only compliment Jane has in regards to Darcy is that he is "very tall".

{{quote| '''Lizzie''': Okay! For the record, when the nicest thing Jane Bennet has to say about you is "tall", you have personality problems.}}

* [[Deadpan Snarker]]: Lizzie herself.

* [[Death Glare]]: Lydia gives Lizzie an especially long and angry one after realising that they're not going out partying like she thought.

* [[Heroic BSOD]]: Lizzie has one in the 8th episode, complete with an editorial aside by Charlotte [[Lampshading]] and/or [[Foreshadowing]] Lizzie's [[Fatal Flaw]] and the entire plot that results from it:

{{quote| '''Charlotte:''' "Hey, everyone. Lizzie is having a bit of a crisis because her sister Jane actually ''likes'' the guy her mother wants her to marry. A guy who, it turns out, is actually pleasant, and nice, and funny, but that Lizzie had already made up her mind to hate. And Lizzie ''hates'' changing her mind."}}

{{quote| '''Charlotte:''' "People like the DIY look. It makes the video feel more authentic if it's not too polished."}}

{{quote| '''Charlotte:''' "Could you get back on-script? No one cares about my aunt."~~<br />~~

'''Lizzie:''' "Yeah... We seem super-authentic now." }}

* [[Pragmatic Adaptation]]: Due to budget and storytelling constraints, only a few members of the cast appear on screen, and some have even suffered [[Death by Adaptation]] (or at least Non-Existence By Adaptation), such as Lizzie and Bing's extra sisters.

Line 36:

* [[Shout-Out]]: in episode 10, Lizzie has to scrutinize Jane's face for more information. When this proves insufficient, she uses a [[Star Trek|Vulcan mind-meld]].

* [[Sound Effect Bleep]] : Hilariously used in episode 8, when Jane lets Lizzie know that she will have to chaperone Lydia.

{{quote| '''Lizzie:''' F...~~<br />~~

''(cut to chinchilla and kitty picture Lizzie had planned to show and a big beep sound)'' }}

* [[Unreliable Narrator]]: Lizzie claims her mom dressed her up as a spinster for Halloween once. Charlotte has to point out that in fact she was dressed as a witch.
