I think DT *could* have done an exuberant incarnation without the camp
I had such high hopes after TCI--writing off that last bit with Harriet as a fluke, which I clearly shouldn't have done. He was so much fun, though, otherwise--a little goofy, able to be serious when necessary, but that sense of wonder was fantastic. I watched it...I don't know how many times before the series started in April! And then they went and turned him into Mr Takes-Nothing-Seriously-Until-You-Cross-Me, and I'm still hoping they'll fix that next year. It made him almost impossible to watch, and that's a shame.
