First, apparently Emily Mortimer is reimagining/rebooting the classic British series *Rumpole of the Bailey* \-- which her father created, and which she's writing with her sister. I do love a good family affair. Second, there was a day on Twitter not long ago when someone made noise about maybe rebooting *The Newsroom*, which was a horrendous show on all fronts (one of which was, it never allowed her character -- supposedly a brilliant producer -- to be anything but an idiot), but apparently that is not happening. I HOPE. *Rumpole* could be a steaming pile, and it would still be a way better use of her time. Thirdly, this dress. What do we think of it? To me it looks like the yard of a person who has swept their lawn full of fall foliage into a series of piles, but has not yet thought to marry them into one mondo mound. Some of that detailing is lovely -- it LOOKS tactile; do we think it is? -- but I feel like it might need to subtract one thing? Either the sleeve, maybe, or the patchiness? Sort me out please, Fug Nation.
