    i always hated that the us version of this show felt like they needed to say this explicitly, that was one of the best things about the british version is that the points were a cute little joke that didn’t need to be spelled out

      That’s always the difference between American and British TV as well - the British shows have intelligence and the American shows have good looking actors but are plain dumb. :)

      In the other hand, Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul are American and they are brilliant.

        Americans don’t generally get to see the shows where British people are being really dumb, except for the Benny Hill Show - we’re all super confused why the Benny Hill Show is a cultural touchstone in the States.
