Yes and no - most mini-series I know have quite low budgets. This is not neccessarily a quality-killer, but it (often) stops good CGI or SFX. And I really loath bad CGI or (especially) SFX - better none then bad.
I repeat - this does not have to mean that a mini-series is bad. Some mini-series have enough money, others dont need a lot of (expensive) CGI or SFX, others somehow make do with what they have (which is more astonishing then making a good film with lots of money) - but quite a few of them fail.

LOTR was an awesome movie, if you never read the books.
Or if you can forget the books while watching the movie.
