It was quickly cancelled. Unlike The Office, which took the concept and built another show around it, Coupling was a remake. The characters, stories and even the script was the same as the Brit version. Of course they had to make a few script changes to suit the FCC and to Americanize the dialog. Other than that it was exactly the same. Oh, except it wasn't any good. Maybe I should write a blog post about that. *L* <em><strong>Edited:</strong> for spelling</em> Yep, there was.

I never thought I'd be admired for my time wasting skills. *L* I love Coupling. The Brit version before Geoff left that is. The US version was horrendously bad. Thanks Tina.

But, seriously, I haven't watched either version yet. I'm a huge British TV fan. Lately I've been watching Coupling on BBC America I admire how much TV watching and reading and web you seem to get in.
