We were excited to watch this after enjoying the original series so much. It picks up a year or so later to find that, although the program is still running along, it's only the first stage in what really needs to happen. Jamie takes the fight to the core, calling parents out for their lack of attention to what's happening with their children and their meals. He calls the gov't into question - taking it all the way up to Tony Blair after the "minister of the week" is unable to give him a proper answer about how long they can commit to the cause. As a person who feels strongly about food and our relationship to it I really enjoy this and I think that Oliver is a pretty damn good spokesperon for our generation. He's got a bunch of other series that I really hope netflix picks up.
You could see this without seeing the series first, but I'm not sure why you'd want to. Watch it and do it with your kids or your parents or whomever.
