The Return of Jeeves
C-

Don't let the title get your hopes up.  Yes, Jeeves returns, but he's working for someone else while Bertie is off getting post-war lessons on taking care of himself, like ironing.  Jeeves's new employer has no patience with Jeeves's literary quotes, or much other appreciation of him.  Again, we get staleness, typos, and warped romance.  (This time, "I'll steal a pendant from the woman I gave it to years ago, even though she thinks it's from one of her late husbands, so I can use it to bet on a race, and then you can marry your girl, who is suspicious of you sneaking out of my woman's room in your pyjamas.")  No mention of Hollywood though.
