I watched most of the first episode last night. Great stuff. Dry British humour, and absolutely true to the book.
Can't wait for bedtime and another episode.

The TV series was a very good adaptation. The 'special effects' are a bit...er...dated, but it was still very funny.Originally Posted by Beirut

You have to be in the right mind set for it. If you're expecting special effects and flash, you'll be let down. You just have to sit back and let the show amuse you with its charm.
All I wanted was a story. The whole thing could be acted out in a paper bag as far as I care, I just want it to be a true representation of Adams's book. So far - so good.

I completely agree with you. The special effects are irrelevant when compared to the quality of the adaptation and the humour.
