Caught the Americanized version of Coupling tonight.
I think the most conciliatory thing I can say about it is "I've seen worse."
It's just a very pale imitation of the original. It's as if a good deal of the life and wit sucked out of it when they de-Brit'd the series. (As if that's ever a surprise.)
Strangely, Lindsay Price as Jane was oddly appealing, even if she wasn't as wacky & zany as Gina Bellman's Jane. Guess it must be the eye candy factor overriding the critical portions of my brain.

Couldn't make past 5 minutes of this crap. I wasn't impressed with the original, and this version just pissed me off. What was the point of the incessant canned laughter? Are the producers telling me I wouldn't know it was a joke unless they included people laughing? Sadly, not even Rena could keep me interested in watching this show.
