In my opinion...they will create it,m and it will be funny, and might even last
a few season, but it will NEVER be as funny as BBC's version. I watched it
again last night, and heard Susan ask Patrick if his dick did all the thinking
for him. You are right. It will never make it through the cencors...even
though those are the funniest parts. I remember the first time I heard the word
"Bitch" on American TV. It was on Married with Children and I was SHOCKED, that
they said it on primetime TV. Too bad...it's just too damn funny to miss...

Jim,
Perhaps since the creators of Coupling are working on it for NBC
there might be a chance it will have some of the magic of the
original. NBC can't show the original series... it would never get
through the censors.
I think you're probably right and it won't last a single season. It's
too bad you've only seen season one. Of course that has my favorite
episode in it... "The girl with two breasts". Anat Dychtwald has to
be one of the most beautiful women I've ever laid eyes on.
I hope you get to see the next two seasons soon. They are excellent.
And Jim... it's Guy not Gary. :-)
