What shows should not be adapted to American Television?

Chex Pop 27 April 2009 Television 52 views One Comment

I am asking this question in the light of train wrecks like Coupling and Kath and Kim. What great foreign shows do you think should never be adapted for American television? I think Absolutely Fabulous is a great show that can never be touched.

  1. I don’t think any should be adapted - Shows are always best in their original formats, can you imagine if other countries started adapting American shows - they’d suck.
    I know The Office american adaptation has been a hit but the original is still better. So was the original Queer As Folk.
    Some shows are just better British, like Skins, Doctor Who… (Or Australian - Home and Away, Neighbours ect…)
