I’ll go first…The Office.

Now I know the two shows are fundamentally quite different, but they adapted what was already a very successful show, and turned It into an event more successfully one that lasted for significantly longer than the original did. I say that’s a win for them.

Anything else? Life on Mars, Being Human, The Inbetweeners…?

    I think some of the difference has to do with the show’s format. You don’t see anyone arguing or backstabbing. On the contrary, even though they are competing against each other they often help each other out. In the USA we have shows like Jersey Shore, car repo, bounty hunter, everything we watch is some form of confrontation pitting someone against someone else and then filming and broadcasting the fireworks. Can you tell that I’m tired of American TV?
