The Miz Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 Show debuted tonight on BBC2, quite enjoyed it, made me want to watch next week. Â Basically two people with a hit British sitcom get asked by a big Hollywood Producer if they would like to remake said sitcom for a US audience in America. They travel over and end up having Matt Le Blanc off of Friends as the star of the show. Â Anyone else see it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mackie Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 The first 2 episodes have been out for a few weeks. I found it a bit hit and miss for a comedy although the pacing is very good. Episode 2 is better but still not the next big thing in british comedy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steveo2007 Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 Watched the first episode last night and quite enjoyed it. Some brilliant moments but not perfect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Burchill's Buddy Posted January 11, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted January 11, 2011 Just watched the first episode, very enjoyable and I imagine it will only get better once Le Blanc comes into it. Griffiths was awesome as always. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members SpursRiot2012 Posted January 11, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted January 11, 2011 The first episode was not great. Had a couple alright moments. But it was obviously a set-up episode so I'll watch next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members JLM Posted January 11, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted January 11, 2011 It's absolutely deplorable that Le Blanc can still get work after the things he's done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Burchill's Buddy Posted January 11, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted January 11, 2011 It's absolutely deplorable that Le Blanc can still get work after the things he's done. 10 seasons of Friends buys him at least one more shot in my book. 'Joey' was, of course, godawful, and Lost in Space was possibly the worst out of all the 80's TV remakes....but he hasn't done toooo much else wrong has he? Wiki tells me he was executive producer on Jonah Hex recenty, I haven't seen it so can't comment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted January 11, 2011 Moderators Share Posted January 11, 2011 Jonah Hex was a bit shit, but not an atrocity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couldnt watch a full series of it, but I didnt think it was as abysmal as people though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
