US Producer Makes UK Show

Interesting quote in here from Paul Feig, who you may know as the creator of Freaks and Geeks and director of Bridesmaids, and who is creating a mock-talk show comedy with American hosts for Sky Atlantic after it got rejected by Showtime: “Feig theorized to Deadline that the reason it’s resonated more with UK networks is that “British audiences responded to these overbearing American characters, and the show is Ab Fab meets everyone’s obnoxious parents who ask horrifying questions.””
