They found a very good Richard Ayoade look-a-like!![]()

Eeer it is the real UK Moss you know![]()

Yes, I did know, hence the smiley... :P
Why on earth the yanks can't just watch our version I have no idea![]()
I know that the states always get slatted for re-making British sit-coms, but I think that the American Office is actually really good.

Why can't they make the IT Crowd based in Delhi or Bombay ;-)

Cause its supposed to be humors and funny, not real lifeOriginally Posted by tech_guy

Oh, they could make it funny if they tried! ;-)
I like the fact that the US versions have more episodes per series. The IT Crowd only had six - US IT Crowd will be the usual 22 standard episodes then 23-24 as an end of series special- quantity over quality...
I also like the American version of The Office but it's a different creature (and it's still written and directed by Gervais/Merchant)
yet another british sit-com that is going to be brutalised by the americans, red dwarf, father ted, fawlty towers, the list goes on
Father Ted and Fawlty Towers have US cousins?
WOW - hadn't heard of them!

Yeah, Father Ped & Fawlty Condominium.....
I'm not sure that they got released because there were conflicts, in the us father ted they wanted to tone down father jack and in fawlty towers they actually wanted to take basil fawlty out of it completely!
The US IT crowd sounds good. Do you have to have sky or something to watch the US version ?
"midseason debut in 2008." (from wikipedia)
It'll be available from all good torrent sites![]()
