This was all hand drawn
demodulated
I was wondering! It looks like vector art but the low frame rate made me think it wasn't computerized. Very stylish though!

Love this BBC TV adaptation. By far the best, in my humble opinion.

And that's why Babelfish was called Babelfish.
The Babel Fish itself is named for the Tower of Babel, after the destruction of which everyone was cursed to speak different languages.
I know... so I guess that's why Babelfish was called Babelfish and why Babelfish was called Babelfish.

This series is currently available on Hulu! Go watch it, it's great, despite the low budget.

Seires? On Netflix? I love the books, hate the movie, and never got around to the radio series, but I've never heard of a TV show.
Currently on Hulu not Netflix. It's an old BBC production. Low budget, but still great.
Well watch it then. And then listen to the radio. It's the original and still the best.
So there is a show? I definitely need to check that out!

Such a great series of books. First 3 are fantastic reading, written by an author taken far, far too early

Just started reading the books again for like the 20th time this week
And it's only Thursday!

All time favorite trilogy of 5 books ever ever. Ford prefect for world leader.
Don’t forget everything we are is from the mice.

Keep the change. From a fiver sir? Are you sure?
3 pints each? At lunchtime?
Time is an illusion. Lunchtime, doubly so.

we can't know. Else the universe will end and become something entirely more complicated.
Of course, this may already have happened...

Hmm, yes, that could work.
