Remedy

Am going to watch the 1st season DVD of BBC's "Coupling" to restore faith in comedy.

Was the American version really bad? I've only seen a couple episodes of the original, but even with that little I thought there was little chance that they could pull it off here. (Especially with an ad campaign comparing it to friends :) ).

You probably don't know me but, for a point of reference, we're both on Solomon and Elka Tovah's Wedding Project cd.

Ah, welcome! Solomon still owes me a copy of that CD. :-)

It was like... I think the best way to put it is that it was a high school production of the British show. There were some okay moments, but the dialogue seemed forced and there was too obtrusive a laugh track. If you'd never seen the BBC version before I suppose it might seem barely adequate. If you have, it's tragic.
