As a whole, I recommend it. And it's pretty fun later on, but havin gone through all the learning I have with our writefriends on how characters and narrative structure can and do work, some parts were very "... Oh, how convenient. Insert trope. Insert joke. Insert rhetoric. Guy gets punched. Catchphrase." *watches as these come true in short order*
Follow the series with the movies. Or, at the very least, the second movie. The first is mostly skippable (you can find the one big new scene, "Simon's Rebirth," on Youtube easily enough).
