This could be bad

I was cruising the NBC website and saw that The Office is a new series premiering on NBC in March. I have a bad feeling they're copying the British version of the show.

Hmmm. They tried doing that with Coupling and that proved unsuccessful. Airplane was a successful move from the British to the US version, though I do like the British version of the show a bit better. American Idol made the transition, annoyingly.

Any other Brit-US TV shows that went well or were botched?
