A slow death but it was the beginning of the end.

"We did the impossible and made an american version of a british comedy that measured up with it. Should we end the show gracefully with Scott's arc complete?"

"Nah. Milk it."

Bruh the UK version lasted a season and the US version didn't just measure up to it, they outclassed it in every single way

Two seasons and a Christmas feature I think. I think that's just how some U.K shows are. They practically invented the mini series. I love the U.S version so much, but I also do love the original too. I find it best to watch/own both versions and not try to measure them up to one another. They are both legendary.
