Re: What about Coupling?

I have to tell you that the original version on BBC America is much better than the Amwerican version.

I think because on the British version they can get away with a lot more than on NBC>

Re: What about Coupling?

I thought it had potential, but didn't live up to it at all. It was weak.

Re: What about Coupling?

it was horrible. i can def. see it being better with british accents and better acting. (i love British humor, but it doesn't work when we do it!) the guy who was in the womens bathroom was a terrible actor!!!

Re: What about Coupling?

I thought the beginning $ucked, but it got better towards the end....not sure how well it will do throughout the whole season though.

Re: What about Coupling?

It stunk. The acting was bad. And the storyline was boring.

Re: What about Coupling?

I agree that it seemed to be trying too hard, but it was the pilot episode. I think it showed some potential.

Re: What about Coupling?

I think that many of the shows they convert from Brit TV are horrible. They never seem to do a good job.
I feel that way about Trading Spaces and While you were out and now Coupling.
These TV execs need to be a little more creative.
It's kinda pathetic, IMO.
