One of these things is not like the other

[petra]

china_shop posted something about Archer's Goon podfic while I had the novel itself sitting next to me on the couch.

Fascinated, I hit up Google and Jinjurly's archive to no avail.

On the other hand, IMDB says there's a miniseries from 1992 of the novel. Among the entries under "If you enjoyed this title, our database also recommends" is Tales of the City.

I suppose they're both works with a strong sense of grounding in a particular city and family structures well outside the norm, but beyond that, I don't see the connection.
