Mere blog posts and tweets cannot adequately express the nausea I feel over the announcement that the American version of Agatha Christie's tweedy super sleuth Miss Marple will be played by... Jennifer Garner. Only a 50 year age difference there. As for critics' arguments that the beloved elderly character has rightly been contemporized, I remind them that elderly people are also contemporary, relevant, and fascinating to watch onscreen. I now eagerly await the US remake of Hercule Poirot, starring Justin Bieber.
