for fuck's sake, people, who gives a shit if the show is british or american or norweigian or whatever! if it's a great show, it's a great show. i mean, yeah, some american shows are shit, but so are tons of shit shows in different countries. so we can't speak in british accents-- you can't speak in american either. who cares. just appreciate quality work when it's given to you
Paul Abbot created both. The US version is far more cinematic. And it's grittier. This is shot more like a soap opera, but I like it. Also , they seem way poorer in the US version.
I don't get why they stopped fucking so suddenly and got all scared when the cop knocked on the door. That was dumb to me. They could've been way more cool about that. I know I would've
So pardon my ignorance of the BBC - this show is/was aired for free in the UK, correct? In the states, only pay channels are able to air programs with profanity and nudity. Do shows like this air late at night with some kind of warning or rating system? Just wondering...
@intrsoul As (sadly accurately) stated by Sharon Brovlowski in the South Park film, "the usa is free to show graphic violence 24 hours a day, so long as they don't say any naughty words".
@acz0190 To be fair though they don't have cockney accents because it's not set in the East End of London. They actually have a Mancunian accent because it's set in Manchester.
Don't attack me (for the love of cheese puffs) but I don't think the American version is that bad. And yes, I watched this version first, and yes I hate when Americans steal from England (like in the case of Skins) but at the same time it isn't bad. I watched the first twenty minutes of episode 1 and they got most of it right.
@CelestianPyro they got most of it right but the way their lines are read is just so less irresistible.. not everything stolen from england sucks (the office) however just having old frank yell "Debbie sent by god's all angel" is way too priceless to be renewed.
@CelestianPyro LOL.. "American steal from England"?? hahaha.... They remade the show. The U.S version is so much better. The US casts are much good looking than the Brit casts.
@ryukos So if the actors are prettier than the show is better..."Great logic! I love the way you think!!! I'm sure you didn't mean it as discrimination!" By the way .... I think that the us and uk versions are very different and cannot be compared because you can clearly see the different backgrounds and if the producers/director/ actors of the us version are smart enough to evidentiate that than we've got a good show if not than the copy is not worth mentioning.
Not that I don't like Twilight, because I love it. But Harry Potter is a million times better. Not just because there are more Harry Potter films than Twilight films, but because Harry has still kept my attention and never left me bored at any part in the series, even after so many of them.
It's about time--wouldn't find people goin at it (like real people do) on our shows in the U.S.--Seriously awesome entertaining!!!And I'm not a perv either!!
I have been hooked on this show since Time Warner started showing Sundance free. I love this show, I just don't understand a lot of what they r saying!!
NO Most of the shows that America puts on is Bullshit. Most of them are rip-offs from the Brits. You know Life on Mars: British; Shark Tank: British version Dragon's Den. The list goes on and on and on.
Actually Dragon's Den started in Japan. The world steals shit from everyone. Every country shows good local programming, it's just what you're into and what you can find. I dont care about the UK vs US. I'm Canadian.
@supervacaneous Thank you. everywhere, you will find shows you like and ones you dislike, its ridiculous to try and claim artistic superiority for a country when it concerns such a large body of work. Just be glad for the shows that both these nations provide and don't pay attention to the ones that dont interest you.
See that. . . THAT was more compelling than entire SEASONS of American T.V. shows. I wish this were more widely available in the U.S. And because of the story, not because I'm a perv or anything.
