after loving the UK original i contemplated buying this for some time ; even though i usualy hate re-makes. The team behind the US version took the concept and with a bigger budget and more air time went out and delivered an amazing series.
the first 2 episodes stick pretty much to the uk version and to be honest wasnt hugely impressed but by episode 3 of the first season i was hooked . due to the length of the show the characters are able to develop and the story lines have much more depth. the show is funny , sad , sexy but above all addictive. its a must buy
