The American remake of Spaced

[Wonder Pigeon]

Man oh man. I'd heard that it was bad, but...sweet lord.


This is about as far from "getting it" as you can get.

without even watching the clip I just know it'll be bad. They have to spoil things

Can't...bring myself...to...watch...it

Jesus that is horrible

I couldn't make it past the part where they try to recreate the scene in the real Space where Brian talks about what he paints

Evidently the Americans tried 3 times to remake Fawlty Towers

why do they have to remake it, why can't they just replay the original?

It's been on BBC America once and that's it. I missed an episode too so am waiting for a repeat.

I loved Spaced, and I hit play. If anything it just reaffirms the fact that British comedy is great and America will never beat it no matter how hard they try

I didn't think it was so terrible, if you go into it expecting it to be equally as good as the original or else it is an American disgrace, you're obviously going to be disappointed. Its not as bad as Life on Mars which was an abomination.
