Apparently the US is getting a new version (I understand that the UK version has been on BBC America)

If you haven't seen it - give it a try
One of the most popular programs on British TV over the last few years

The first episode I watched was ok, if a little bit like a cheap League Of Gentlemen in many ways.
But I can't stand formulaic comedy sketch shows when it's the same characters every week saying the same catchphrase, in various scenarios.
I am really enjoying The Wrong Door on BBC3--- there are repeating characters, but they don't just spew the same lines each week. Check it out.

I've watched most of the other ones mentioned and enjoyed most of them, but I had to give a shout out about these shows. Garth Marenghi's "Darkplace" is another gem. (Maggots anyone?)
I just finished watching the first season of "The Fixer" (that stars Andrew Buchan, who was just in the 3rd season premier of "Bones") and thoroughly enjoyed it (although it's a bit dark).
I keep coming back to "Primeval", although I can't fathom why, it jumps the shark about once an episode. Hopefully it will improve with Series 3.
Torchwood (and The Doctor, of course) are great, but for those of you who watch Torchwood on BBCUSA, your getting a heavily edited version.
