The American version was remade in completely the wrong way. Our (Australia's) original is a satirical look at Aussie suburbia (they are NOT in the least bogan) - the whole premise of the show is as a fly-on-the-wall type thing, where as the American version was raped into a sitcom, set around the story line of season 1. jamez000 can deny it all he wants, but we can all identify with some part of each of the characters, and that was the beauty of the show - as much as they were all outlandish hyper-realisations of suburban stereotypes, they were still identifiable. Anyone who denies that is an elitist.
It was never going to work. I love Selma, Molly and John, and I don't blame them for the failure in the least - the producers and writers got it all wrong.
A little bit of reference for the foreigners - I don't think a single episode (out of four seasons and a tv movie) ever rated lower than the 1.23 million that watched the US premiere. It consistantly rated over 2 million per ep (that's roughly one in ten Aussie's watching it - the equivalent of 30 million Americans watching one show every week over 5 years).
Hopefully Jane and Gina get cracking on a new season for next year now that this mess is out of the way.
Just like you, the "queen" of anti-journalism, who makes a living off dissing celebs, fabricating lies, outing your fellow gays, and stealing other peoples work. At least she makes a legitimate dime, and even more importantly, can salvage some dignity.
And if you want to get into this matter...lets talk about how you've substantially lowered the number blogs per page to increase your hit rate as increasing your ad revenue at the same time.
Don't think we haven't noticed.
While I don't think Lauren has done anything substantial...at least she's chasing an education and she's making a legitimate career for herself outside of the television realm. You, on the other hand, are an uneducated faux par who is teetering on the edge of irrelevance. Because lets face it, you are a fad, and you'll be forgotten just as fast as any other cewebrity out there.
