I'll second the motion the everyone should watch them.

I'm not sure of the quality, given the size it should be pretty good.  It's
been a while since they've been shown on telly here (8 years?) and I'd
missed the one on cars, and a couple of the office ones.

.rm?  Not .mov?

It's been in my torrent queue for a while now...
