iirc correctly, Spaced is a cult comedy that only a minority of the public in this country are aware of and actually enjoy, so whats the difference?

It's become more mainstream over the years through exposure that Pegg has got from his movies, people enjoyed them and find out what else he's done etc etc, as for enjoying them people in this country, on a whole, have a different sense of humour and understanding than that of your average American.

Nah, just an armchair fan me. Well, a behind-the-armchair fan for most of the second half

Would've taken that result at the start of the day, Huckers getting suspended is a nice bonus too. </BLOCKQUOTE>

Great match for the neutral, would've liked a third Norwich goal to really rub it in all the Town fans faces tomorrow (my best mate is about the only Norwich fan I know).

Cureton showing why he was the Championship's top scorer last season :/

will you please shut up?

The average person in this country is more likely to watch and understand Birds of a Feather or My Family than they are Spaced.

The average person is generally an idiot. That happens whether you're in the US or the UK or anywhere else in the world.

Theres enough pop culture in America for them to be able to redo the show using the British version as a base for it and theres enough people in the target demographic the show is likely to target for it to be potentially a success.

There are plenty of arguments against the show being redone that are valid and coherent, yours is just plain stereotypical rubbish.
