It is always strange to me that more American media of that sort is not created.
Like I look at all the Porn Valley people who are just dying to "crossover" (whatever the fuck crossover is) to "mainstream" (dirty word to me, but not to them apparently), only they've got all the equipment and don't use it.
Often there is such a huge budget for American television that someone doing a terrible job in the USA makes crazy bank more than someone doing a great job in the UK. On the plus side for folks working in the UK, it is possible to have far longer careers there with far less plastic surgery. On the minus side for Americans, the inflated budgets mean fewer risks can be taken and fewer programs can be made. Only so much budget to go around.
