Im torn on whether to be mad about this.

I'm mad because Ricky Gervais was involved and let this travesty happen. I thought they were "going out on top" and leaving it alone, but it looks like they whored themselves for the American market. Also, if they would have put their own spin on it, I would consider it watchable.

I am thoroughly disappointed. The British version is one of the best shows I have ever seen.

I tivo'd it but haven't watched it yet. I wonder how much Gervais is actually involved in the show. He might have just got an Executive Producer thread because it was his show, but has nothing really to do with it. I could be wrong, but I would suspect that is what is going on.
