I watched it in Iraq thanks to 5 dollar bootlegs of the entire series other than the last 2 seasons which weren't out yet.
I liked the show for the most part though, part of that was because I was LA, so I saw familiar places, which was nice while being overseas, part was hot chicks with some nice tits, which was nice because you'd be shocked how fast a TB worth of porn gets boring (but most of it was crap, some guys were into some nasty shit).. It was also nice to imagine being rich while sitting in some shit city.
When I got home I watched the last two seasons and didn't like it as much. I don't know if those two seasons were just weaker, or because I wasn't in country anymore though.
I'll check out the movie, but on demand or something.
