What

said .. well wrote, now I think about it.

Pretty much whatever the UK does .. the response of the US is to do it different, if not completely opposite ... spelling, driving on the wrong side of the road, eschewing roundabouts in favor of the four way stop, inventing its own version of perfectly acceptable games, defining the world as being the country .. ‘world series’, ‘<insert pretty much any thing here> capital of the world’, taking a perfectly lovely uk show and rewriting it as an American show .. oh and then deliver an order of magnitude more episodes (Key Point: no series set up is that good) .. shall I go on?
