When I started watching this I wasn't sure it was going to measure up against the original Merchant-Ivory movie.
A lot of comparisons to draw: 4 hours against about two hours or so. Mathew McFadyen vs Anthony Hopkins. Haley Atwell vs Emma Thompson.
But as the last episode comes up next week (if you're watching it on ABC) I'd have to say they've done a pretty good job with it and the two leads in particular.
