Emma on PBS

Is it wrong to enjoy the "new" Emma that's on Masterpiece Classic? I like the version with Kate Beckinsale, too, but this new one is so bright and shiny and NEW. The costumes and colors are almost saturated, and the look is very now. No matter how hard they try to be historically accurate, costume dramas always seem to pick up some attributes of the time they are made. Well, the more Jane Austen, the better. Each one has a slightly different take on the text, and is enjoyable. And is not like any of the other stuff on TV.
