Worth watching for QAF fans
I thought this was an excellent follow up to the first series. Sure, it was a little outlandish at the end (the Thelma and Louise feel to it was amusing), but the characters are so endearing, complicated, sympathetic, and appealing that I still enjoyed every minute of it. I was disappointed and incredulous that there was only one disk in the box, as I expected to get another four episodes out of "Series 2" -- sadly, it was just one movie. But it did wrap up a lot of the strands from the first series, and I felt satisfied by the weird ending. For fans of the first series, I think it is well worth watching. (If you weren't a fan already, there's no point.)I prefer this series to the American version any day of the week -- but then, I am generally a fan of British film and TV, and I generally hate American TV. So there's my bias. Also, I watched the British version first, so I was already digging the Brits before I started watching the American series. Brian and Michael were doomed from the start for me -- they just can't measure up to Stuart and Vince, in my book.
