    The second one is better (more fun and lighthearted) than the first, but they should be watched in order.

I might have to give Long Way Down another crack. With Long Way Round, we could hardly wait to see the next episode (and this was back when Netflix sent us round recorded media in the mail), but when Long Way Down came out.... it just felt.... staged, or played out... or something. But I will take your recommendation and try the re-watch.

I unfortunately ran into Long Way Down first, and felt it was a great time. My wife and I really enjoyed it.

Then we watched Long Way Round, and it felt much heavier.

Now I wanna go back and watch them both! It's long enough ago that it would be fresh again.

Yah man... it’s just lovely. Anyone who is into adventures, travel... or if you’re into motorbikes AT ALL... it’s such a great watch. I don’t think my wife minded staring at Ewan McGregor for several hours either.
