If something merely offends my prudish sensibilities, I'll just shrug and go elsewhere. In this case, though, we have an original work that developed its charm by doing what it did with a little bit of subtlety. The adaptation eschews that subtlety and even adds in almost a touch of raunch. That gives it a very different impression, and, in my opinion, it doesn't work as well.
Key phrase: "in my opinion". Which I'm on the series forum to share. I'm not here to tell any one they shouldn't enjoy the show, I'm just stating what I think.
