I loved the Brit version of the show and looked forward to the US version only so my friends would see this great storytelling. I’ve now seen approx. 4 eps now and am let down. Sam and Genes dynamic is just not there and Keitel’s Gene just comes off as smug with no comedy to him. These characters growing on each other and why are crucial to the show and its story arc and conclusion. If this isn’t fixed I’ll have to order the Brit series on dvd so I can show my friends I’m not an idiot.

Hi,
I don`nt know how the American adaptation was as I have never seen it. Speaking from a purly British, Welsh really as the original series was made here when no one else would buy it, welcome.
I hope you realise that this series is addictive and hope it gives you as much pleasure as the original series.
Let me know how it is progressing State side, I will not give any plots away just let you enyoy the series.

I did not see the British version, but I saw the American premier last night. I enjoyed it and will be watching the next episode.
