Okay, funny thing is I was under the impression Shaw lived long enough to see My Fair Lady and *did* hate it, but I just looked it up and he died a few years before it came out. I also learned that fans of Shaw are called 'Shavians', which sounds like a religious order from a high fantasy series.

See, I thought so too and originally wrote "the author hated it as well" and then was unsure and googled it (hey, tiny scale Mandela effect!). I think it's how he explicitly added a scene to make it very very clear that there would be no hope for the ship sailing and fought tooth and nail whenever someone tried to change it so yeah, he definitely would have hated it.

I *think* it might be that there were people at the time he wrote the play who felt bad for the Professor and wanted Eliza to go back to him, and Bernard told them where they could stick it. I vaguely recall something along those lines.

I vaguely remember some producer of the play(?) actually changing the ending due to popular demand and Shaw was PISSED (and thus added the new ending scene).
