I can see the set up purely being based around two strangers sharing an apartment and the hilarious antics that ensue around that. I can see all of the movie references being omitted and them just sticking with the most basic of premises.

Great minds think alike Jimmy. I posted this on MySpace a little while ago... QUOTE Here's my prediction: They will make a show about two singles who pretend to be a couple in order to get a flat. The similarities with the original will end there. There will be lots of hi-jinks and shenanigans and hillarity will ensue (not much).

What are YOU looking at????? Group: Senior Members Posts: 171 Joined: 30-May 07 From: The Big O, Ooooooklahoma!!!!! Member No.: 6,356 |
It'll probably be a lame Three's Company/ W&G, just in reverse. Afterall, the dude adapting it for the US worked on W&G.
I just can't see anyone else in those roles. They were born of Simon & Jess. They ARE Tim and Daisy!!!!! Ugh!! |

Aren't they more likely to go with unknowns in the central roles?

I really want to see this.
Tim & Daisy will remain pretty much the same career wise...names will probably change to Cherry & Chuck or something. Mike will become a gung-ho Army reservist, Brian will be pretentious and European, Marsha will not drink (alcohol in a sit-com!!) but will become a bit "ditsy". Twist will become a Puerto Rican drag queen. It won't be called Spaced. Instead something like Room For Two or Cherry & Chuck or Strange Relationship or Room For Rent. The theme will be an upbeat pop number that will repeat the show's title over again. It won't go beyond the pilot. |

Or like the Office remake, it'll be quite good and effectively Americanised, leading to a very different but worthwhile series in its own right.
I can't quite believe it, but I am fascinated to see the outcome. I almost hope it's brilliant, but this remains the main thread for discussing it, alarmist title and all. Tee hee. |

Part of me would like to see a successful transfer like The Office.
But a morbid part of me also wants to see a disastrous transfer like Fawlty Towers. |

It's a win/win situation.
I'm quite excited! |
