Sure he wasn't happy but without him the narrative balance of ths story is lost. :( This makes me sad. :(
He was one of the main reasons why I even watched the show. I've always enjoyed that actor, especially as Tybalt in Romeo and Juliet. And you don't find many programs that feature a narrator in the manner that this one does. Most of them are just wank ass voice overs. But, Augustus rocked. Even as just a character, he rocked.
I know he gave the story cohesion, the character was sympathetic. He did bad things, didn't pretend he hadn't but was honestly remorseful and trying to rebuild his life. As for the story he lended it a cohesion that it wouldn't have had otherwise. This is a real shame and I could see my self and many others stopping watching it because of this, simply because it would have lost what made it good.
And yeah he rocked in Romeo And Juliette him and John Leguizamo (sp?)

I'm still pissed off.
