Precisely. Nobody could replace the fabulous Paterson Joseph, either.

At least we can be glad the American Doctor Who movies with Michael Jackson never got made.
I think you’re thinking of the American sandman with Michael Jackson that never got made…

I mean it sounds like a terrible idea, but hang on… Maybe this could be the One…
That was another project that never happened.
Huh. I did not know that was a thing. Thanks?

Exactly!
In some other space-time continuum, they probably enjoyed his dance scenes in the TARDIS, but it’s probably for the best it didn’t happen.

It sounds a bit like this won’t exactly be a US version but a new show using the same format of seeing scenes from the characters POV and hearing their thoughts, in which case it might be alright.
I read the other day a US version of the quite good BBC sitcom Ghosts is being made and can’t quite work out why.
Another example that didn’t work for me is Murder in Successville. I watched a couple of episodes of the US version, Murderville, and found it completely lacked everything that made the original great.
But on a more positive note, having been a big fan of Shameless (at least the first four or five series) I can honestly say I loved the US version and in many ways prefer it. (And yeah, I know it’s not a sitcom)
