I was recording it, but I never read the book and I don't think I will anytime in the near future. So, I erased it. If I ever get around to the book, maybe it will be available on netflix or hulu.
Uh, are we gonna fight, or is there just gonna be a monster sarcasm rally?

I really liked it. I also really liked the book.

Yeah, I really liked the book. Then again, I enjoyed the travelogues and extensive descriptions of scenery in the Hobbit and Lord of the Ring books.

My DVR erased the first episode. I never read the book. Will I be able to follow the story if I pick things up in episode 2, or should I just go ahead and delete everything?

While there are probably better recaps (don't follow many recappers these days) this should give you enough of the basics of episode 1 to get through 2 [link] .

Also, the series has really good previouslies. The problem is, having read the book I'm not really able to judge whether the previouslies alone are enough or if you need the recap.

Shoot, I don't remember what happens when, but I feel like the miniseries was actually pretty episodic and you should be fine just jumping in to 2

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
I enjoyed it, although it bugged the heck out of me that the central conflict seemed to be the result of one character not being honest with the other. It's a trope that annoys me whenever it appears.
Typo -- Could you whitefont the "divergence"? I never read the book.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
