My wife and I just finished watching Dickensian. It basically combines multiple characters from several Dickens novels and puts them in the same space to interact with each other. I must admit I am not familiar with a few of his works, but you don't really have to be to enjoy the show. It really was well done and imagines the pre-stories to a lot of the characters established in his books. The only bad part is they didn't make a second season.
