Thread Name: BS: US Kath and Kim (and similar)
Subject: RE: BS: US Kath and Kim (and similar)
All in the Family (Till Death Do Us Part)--many Emmys and Golden Globes
Sanford and Son (Steptoe and Son)--top 10 in ratings 5 out of 6 years, with #2 three of those years.
Both of those American versions were sentimentalized mush compared with the original. Is it surprising that the US ratings system likes that stuff?
