Television producers are always looking for the next big thing and ideas can be scarce, so, why don't borrow other show's ideas? This episode gives some examples of British situation comedies that were adapted for American audiences. While there have been great successes, such as "The Office," "All in the Family," and "Three's Company," there have been some pretty appalling failures as well.
This week's show looks at shows that may have had a pilot (or two) produced, but no American series ever made it on the schedule.
