What's a British TV show that the Yanks did better? (feddit.uk)

I'll go first....The Office.

Now I know the two shows are fundamentally quite different, but they adapted what was already a very successful show, and turned It into an event more successfully one that lasted for significantly longer than the original did. I say that's a win for them.

Anything else? Life on Mars, Being Human, The Inbetweeners.....?

The US pilot of the IT Crowd is on YouTube, and it's pretty terrible. Even Joel McHale couldn't save it.
