It is driving me crazy that every U.S. magazine is comparing Coupling to Friends now that there is a U.S. version of Coupling coming out. Coupling more like Seinfeld, but with a constant theme of sex underlying every episode. On Friends, the characters don't have sex in common, they are "Friends". The only thing that Coupling has in common with Friends is that there are 6 white people on the show. And I have definitely seen that before.
I love Coupling. On every episode there is something that makes you laugh out loud. I can't say that about many other shows that are on, and certainly if a show does that consistently in America, it is then cancelled. I am happy that we do get some British shows, though, I can admit that I hadn't seen Cold Feet until they did an American version. That version was cancelled after 3 or so episodes, but it definitely whet my appetite to see the rest. I'll watch the American version of Coupling, but the British version will probably be superior. Thank God for BBC America!
