I'm starting to question the point of adapting British shows to American audiences. The Office I get....it was short lived in Britain, and the characters display a very different (ie. less edgy) dynamic. But shameless and Skins are still going somewhat strong as British shows. Surely there could be more of a backing by channels in the US instead of adapting them? I mean, should we start adapting your shows? Imagine friends in Birminghamshire, or Mad Men in Cork.
