I can only bear it with the remote control in my hand. I ffwd through a MAJORITY of the thing. There were only a few scenes I actually watched.
Although it's not the Charles from the book, I sort of like Willa and Charles together so I watch their scenes.
I love Peter O'Toole so I watch his scenes, even though they gave him almost NOTHING to do.
I think Fen is hilarious and enjoy watching his scenes with Ashton (even though I totally loathe garber's portrayal of Ashton. She just GRATES on me).
I enjoy watching James Read's scenes, even though I think the writing was done poorly. Everything was rushed and there was no craftsmanship in the story telling. I guess I just like watching him -- even though I never forgave John Jakes for killing off Constance. G&C were my fave couple and I loved all their scenes together. And while I do like Lesley Anne Down as an actress (enjoyed her in Upstairs, Downstairs), I just didn't like Madeline as a character, and especially Madeline of book II mini series, and disliked her even more in the book III mini series. (So yes, I do FF through most of Madeline's scenes, lol.)
In all honesty that is really about all I can watch.
In fairness, I must admit that I ffwd through some parts of Book I and Book II, also.
