Just leave it!
The bad thing is trying to happen again! After the aborted attempt by Fox (at least I think it was Fox. I blogged about it a long time ago) to do an American remake of Peep Show for no good reason at all, news reaches me and you about another potential remake. From Digital Spy:
‘American cable network Spike TV is reported to have done a deal with RDF USA subsidary Pangea to develop a US version of Peep Show. The show, made by UK company Objective Productions, is currently on its fourth series on Channel 4, with a fifth already commissioned. Starring David Mitchell and Robert Webb, the UK version is on its second season on BBC America in the US. Curb Your Enthusiasm executive producer Robert Weide is believed to be linked as writer and director. Objective and Pangea will jointly produce. Andrew O’Connor, chief executive of Objective, will executive produce along with Objective head of comedy Phil Clarke, Weide and RDF USA’s Chris Coelen. The project is in early development and is a rare move into sitcom for Spike, best known for dramas The Kill Point and Blade, and showing reruns of The Shield, CSI, Star Trek and The Dukes of Hazzard. Spike TV is part of the Viacom-owned MTV Networks and predominantly caters for a young male audience. ‘
