I taped it, coz I went to bed... but the beginning seemed entertaining enough.

 

[NEVAGIVEUP]

Just like anything i watch, i went in with an open mind. Fifteen minutes into the show i'm thinking "Great this will be another one of those shows; it won't last" But i was hooked until the end. I enjoyed it, just hope i won't be disappointed down the track.

Despite adoring the british version, I went in relatively open-minded. I still absolutely despised every second of this excruciating hour of television :mad1: The humour felt forced, the actors were beyond horrible (not even bothering to make the characters their own - Jason O'Mara was even using the same mannerisms as John Simm), and the key relationship between Sam and Gene was sidelined to a ridiculous extent. Not to mention... although most of the episode was adapted frame by frame with even the smallest details being copied, Annie was of course blonde

I don't think I'll be watching anymore... I'd like to preserve the memory of a far classier show.

There's a non Brit version? :/

Yeah. The US decided to remake an excellent show in a completely inferior (and essentially futile) manner... god knows why :mad1: The brits tend to do everything better anyway lol.

Don't worry, there's a repeat tonight at 10:40

I'll probably be watching the footy..

But the plot seems very interesting.

 

[greekgun]

Seems like an alright show. Has some potential, but i rekon the story line will progress fairly slowly.

Not to mention they had to spell it out to the Americans and say he's in an "alternate reality" =="

Well it looks like you people can sleep a little easier knowing the ABC has cancelled the show after one season, Yep they've given up on it and well end it on its first and only season.

For what it was worth I liked it, but then again I never saw the Original British one

 

[GUSSSSSSSSSSSSS]

^well the british one only had 2 seasons

but it ended well with him goin back, and then goin back in time again lol
(that sounded weird no?)

I LOVED the British version.

When I first heard that there was going to be an American remake i was absoulutely appalled.

I still am, at the show.

John Simm will always be THE Sam Tyler. And Philip Glenister The Gene Genie. No one shall ever replace them!

 

[DanteEX]

I don't know about you but Harvey Keitel as Gene was pretty big... The Man is freaking Mr. White for christ sake.

 

[sarahdee]

there is a brit version? :O

i love the american one!

 

[DanteEX]

I don't know about you but the American version is actually rather engaging, it's one of the highlights of my week keeping up with their take on it.
