I sort of enjoyed the 1st part, which I watched last night.
Part of the trouble is, although visually the discworld books translate to the screen, most of the humour and indeed writing talent is not in the visual description or dialogue.
You will need to read the books to understand. In fact you should read the books anyway.

I try not to be a purist bore when it comes to screen adaptations of Terry Pratchett books, but they do only capture a tiny part of the text.
