@chrisx665 - No I wouldn't care if the UK Remade our Crappy TV Show's, Now if they Remade True Blood that would be kind of stupid because it is suppose to be set in Louisiana Not the UK, but the UK has remade Law and Order and it's Very Good so You never know

@AppleMacgic911 - I Apologize

Im glad americans like our shows =D

[EASYTIGER10]

Maybe I'm naive but I sometimes wonder why more American viewers don't get pissed off about everything being remade. Don't they find it as patronizing and insulting that American distributors ASSUME they won't understand the originals?

I know I would. I'm British, and if a show is American, that's what I want to see, not some "Britishised" version of it. It would SERIOUSLY piss me off. Sure, we may not get ALL the references, but we learn as we go.

@A4F7IPictures i saw the being human remake it was terrible

[SuperFlyinPwrs]

I sometimes find it hard to understand some American accents. American remakes all suck. American Being Human sucks balls. I'm so glad they haven't remade a Doctor Who TV series.

BEING HUMAN THE AMERICAN VERSION HAVE NO PLOT WHAT SO EVER

[Pink4Friday]

have you seen the inbetweeners? watch it, and they are making an US version.

[TheWorstWarlock]

I'm from England, and I like the American Skins. The later seasons of the original show have gotten silly, but the American one, while not perfect, captures what I liked about the first 2 seasons, yet makes it different enough to keep me interested.

@PauliReenactment The ending of the US one is complete bullshit. Oh they were actually on Mars all along. Wow. You couldn't leave the title as a metaphor, you had to make it literal. You really are stupid and unimaginative America.
