Found only in the "On Demand" service from Virgin Media this adaptation of Coupland's book is remarkably successful.

When I first reviewed this book I really didn't like it, mainly because I loved (and love) Microserfs so much.
This time around, after seeing the TV series CBC made of it I enjoyed the story much more. Having the TV versions of the characters in my head made them much more likeable and their bizarre, nihilistic, acts much sillier and funnier.
The book's still flawed and the overkill of concrete text and lists of numbers and words is very annoying but at least I can honestly say I found it entertaining.
