Spinning off from the insanely popular TV show which ran for a decade, this movie in some ways tries to help bring closure to the show, which was cancelled a year earlier. Basically this will only really appeal to fans of the show, and new viewers may have ten years of questions that will undoubtedly go unanswered without first watching the show. Having said that, the storyline is pretty much stand-alone and, once you get to grips with the characteristics of the characters, things are pretty easy to follow and filled with exposition.
