among the countless number of bbc based tv shows that have
been americanized we now will have the american version of
coupling
and i have to say i am sad
every single good british show has been bastardized
what's next?
american version of the office?

Honestly I read an interview with Ricky Gervais saying him
and Steven Merchant where in discussions with one of the
major US networks to sell the rights to produce a show.

i too am enraged and inflamed with torment knowing that that
particular show has been adapted for a different country.
now i'm off to soothe my psyche with a "friendlies" marathon
(the original brazilian show upon which the evil clone
"friends" was based).

shut up
here's a whole dollar...go
get some candy
and keep your mouth shut

i guess american tv is so desperate that they have to just
change the accent of a show to APPEAL to the american
audiance...or change the slang jokes to american.....
we are sad people here
pathetic too
just makes you amazed how stupid the people here who watch
tv are....they cannot see a british show yet they see the
same show in AMERICAN
