I think it's about time the Americans stopped remaking British Sitcoms and vice - versa.
I just saw an episode of the American version of Fawlty Towers - Payne - sickening - it was just bad comedy - it was about as funnyt as Saved by The Bell...
I can think of a few decent remakes - The UK's The Upper Hand (Who's The Boss remake) was pretty good - in fact I prefer it...
I've heard good things about Sanford And Son but I've never seen it.... I doubt it could match the greatness of Steptoe and Son...
sorry - rant over...
