[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Didn't the first episode have Bonnie signing a petition to ban Avenue Q? That set up early animosity between Bonnie and Madeline that wasn't in the book. I think all the added character conflict keeps everyone a suspect, which the book didn't really do. [/quote]

Yes, Bonnie did sign a petition in the show but there was no such issue in the book.  I think it's another sign of Bonnie's duplicity - all peace and love and let people live, while her other face is vindictive bitch.  There was animosity in the book, but one of the things Madeline grappled with was that Bonnie didn't show any, even while she believed Bonnie was purposely trying to undermine her parenting with Abigail.

i thought it was interesting that the TV Bonnie set up the meeting between parents, though she clearly has no interest in getting along with Madeline or Ed.  Likewise, it seems like Madeline's ex chose Bonnie because she's so much more laid back, but he seems less appreciative of her lifestyle than her ability to drive Madeline crazy.[/quote]
