So I saw the American version of 'The Inbetweeners' last night...

[Roberto Dinero]

Pretty damn terrible. And no new jokes for the most part. Its basically the same exact show repackaged for the American market.

I will probably watch all of it just out of curiosity to see how they remade it but its pretty damn lame.

Only thing that's better is the girl that plays Carli. She's fiiiiiiine!

 

[Remy LeBreh]

It already got cancelled breh

 

[Premeditated]

word of advice...

any tv series on MTV that isn't the Challenge or Jersey Shore, is fukking terrible and I'd tell you not to waste your time. There's a reason why alot of channels pass on them.

I'm not surprised. I dunno if its cause I've seen the original but all the same jokes in the American version weren't even funny at all. In the original I was laughing hard, those same jokes in the remade version left me with the face. Maybe it was the delivery or something, but it was just not funny. At all.

So how many episodes did they end up making? I've seen 2 so far...

the kid that played Simon was terrible... not only that, why the fukk did they keep his name "Simon?" No on in America is named "Simon."

And having Jay being fat defeated the whole purpose of the character.

New Neil sucked too.

The Will kid was the best if I had to pick one, but he still paled in comparison.

I also fukkin hate Brett Gelman, the British dude was so much better in that role.

Who is Brett Gelman? The guy that plays the vice principal? Ain't nobody that could replace Mr Gilbert, he was way too funny. One of the funniest characters on the show.

I watched the whole season and enjoyed it

Disappointed to find out it's been canceled.

How many episodes was the American season? The British one was 6 episodes each season which is pretty common out here.

I know in the states they usually put a lot more episodes in each season so I'm wondering how many they put out.

I think there were around 10 episodes.

I think there were around 10 episodes.

Oh, OK. Cause when I was watching the show I also noticed that they merged a few story lines of different episodes all into one show so if they've put 10 episodes together, the content must amount to more or less the first 2 seasons or so of the show.

I think I will probably watch the whole thing, just to see what they have done with the show and how they've put it together for the US.

 

[ThatKidBlackHippy]

yeah the remade versions of UK shows usually come out pretty terrible, just straight basura all around.

 

[Roberto Dinero]

I've seen more episodes of the series now. The last 2 episodes I saw were completely original shows that weren't done in the UK version so that's a little better. Still trash tho.

 

[Zombi_Jeezus]

This shyt was turribull. The only US remake of a UK show that i've seen that doesn't suck is Shameless.

MTV messed up Skins too.
