I loooooove me some UK Utopia. Have you watched the US abomination? If not.. don't. Just... don't.

I'm a huge UK TV nerd and my general rule of thumb is to never watch US remakes.

One of favourite shows Ghosts (made by the Horrible Histories gang) was redone by the US and they basically turned it into shitty sitcom.

Actually US ghosts has grown into its own. It's a very different beast from the UK one, true, but it has definitely found its own feet. And they pull shit they would never get away with on the UK one
