Thanks all the same, but...

According to Deadline, Veronica Mars creator Rob Thomas is working on an upcoming, modern-day TV series inspired by Victor Hugo’s novel Les Misérables. The series is described as

"...a primetime soap about a brilliant lawyer running a legal exoneration program who fights to evade the consequences of his own unjust conviction many years before. He must navigate high society, continue his mission of saving innocent people, and manage his tumultuous family and romantic life — all while staying one step ahead of a ruthless U.S. Attorney who refuses to let the ghosts of the past die."

Sorry, Rob Thomas, but the only bits of Les Misérables that I can stomach are the handful of characters who crop up in the glorious online fancomic Girls Next Door, so I'll be skipping this one.
