Writing in the P.G. Wodehouse style (for Jeeves fics) is extremely difficult to do well. The source material is highly stylized 1st person POV and very, very funny. The man spent months on his work. There's a lot of fic that gets it sort of kind of right or opts for 3rd person POV, which turns it into another sort of fic altogether. There aren't a lot of fics that land in that sweet spot. But the level of writing is high. But the fandom is mostly based on the TV series starring Hugh Laurie (House) and Stephen Fry.

The TV series "Jeeves And Wooster" is extremely funny but the loss of Bertie's narration is significant since you lose the dexterity of the prose. But it's an excellent show and the leads are gorgeous.
