1996: NBC Brings All of Gulliver's Travels to TV
February 4, 2021  | By TV WW  | 102 comments
 
On this day in 1996, NBC debut the first part of the two-part miniseries, Gulliver's Travels.

The miniseries was based on the classic Jonathan Swift novel, Travels into Several Remote Nations of the World, in Four Parts. By Lemuel Gulliver, First a Surgeon, and then a Captain of Several Ships — although most know the book by its abbreviated name, Gulliver's Travels. Starring Ted Danson as lead character, Lemuel Gulliver, the miniseries was a more faithful adaptation of Swift's work in that it included all four parts of the original novel. (Most adaptations focus mainly on Part 1, "A Voyage to Lilliput.")

The miniseries — which earned five Emmy awards, including Best Miniseries — also starred Peter O'Toole, John Gielgud, Omar Sharif, Warwick Davis, Kristin Scott Thomas, Alfre Woodard and Danson's real-life wife, Mary Steenburgen, as Gulliver's wife, Mary.

Thanks for the tips on credit repair on this amazing web-site. What I would offer as advice to people will be to give up this mentality that they may buy at this point and shell out later. As a society all of us tend to do this for many things. This includes trips, furniture, and items we’d like. However, you have to separate a person’s wants from all the needs. While you are working to raise your credit score make some trade-offs. For example you possibly can shop online to economize or you can look at second hand suppliers instead of high priced department stores regarding clothing.

Hello Fella, What you ?came up with here absolutely have me wicked up to the last word, and I wanna say to you I rarely read the entire post of blogs as I often got sick and tired of the gibberish that is presented in the junkyard of the world wide web on a daily basis and I simply end up checking out the headlines and maybe the first lines or something like that. But your headline and the first few rows were exceptional and it right on the spot forced me to stay. So, I just wanna say: nice and rare job! Thanks, really.

I am really loving the theme/design of your weblog. Do you ever run into any browser compatibility problems? A handful of my blog visitors have complained about my site not working correctly in Explorer but looks great in Chrome. Do you have any solutions to help fix this problem?
 
 
Very interesting details you have noted , thankyou for posting .This will be huge for smugglers sending these phones to countries that are not directly supported by Apple currently. Apple will move substantial units this way. This article only takes the American perspective, which is ridiculous.
