Auf Wierdershen Pet was a little before my time but I have watched DVDs of the original several times and it is a very good series. Season 1 in Germany earnt it the it 8 stars of my review with season 2 not far behind in my estimation on 6-7 stars (I particularly liked the music in the cowboy bar the plumber took the lads too, and Jimmy Nail singing - I just wish he'd recorded it properly on one of his CD's)
The later seasons in America and Cuba I watched on TV when they were released, despite a few good moments I thought they weren't that good thought, maybe a 3 star and 2 star respectively. The wooden hut in America looked like a feeble attempt to recapture the feeling of season 1, and when they brought in Noel Clark as Wayne's son it seemed pointless, I didn't feel that they needed anyone else despite lacking the seventh menber of thier crew, but why him? In the original 2 seasons all 7 were craftsmen - bricklayers, a carpenter, an electrician and a plasterer, so how does a DJ fit in?
