Want to know what happens? (Loljk I'd never spoil it for anybody)

Also, speaking of Americans, some company in America asked the BBC if they could do an American adaptation of Sherlock. The BBC said no, but the Americans are like "WTF!? FML." and made one anyways. The only difference is that
A) It'll be called something different
B) It will be crap because the BBC will have no input on it.

C) Watson's a girl. Joan Watson.
D) She's Asian.
E) It's set in NYC, not London.

It's called "Elementary", BTW.

For whatever reason American companies keep making (worse) copies of all the award-winning British TV shows....

Everything good that has come from English TV has been ruined in America. FACT.

I refuse to verify or challenge that statement because I haven't seen every American remake of a BBC/ITV programme [which is what I assume you mean by English TV].

Yeah, me too. I've never seen an American remake so I have no clue what you're on about.

BBC and ITV aren't the only British channels, but I see what you mean. But still, they can at least get their own idea.

What, you mean that the British can't copy Americans either? So much for the dominant island over the pond... ethnocentrism at its finest Rolling Eyes

Also, minus a odd 2, most of the UK remakes are like game shows; who even watches those?
