‘Ab Fab’ Is Dunzo!?
Reports indicate that Fox decided to pass on picking up the show

Despite the fact that a pilot was shot for the series, Fox has reportedly decided to not pick up the US remake of the hit UK comedy series Absolutely Fabulous. At first, the folks at Fox were all excited about this American remake but, in the end, it seems that cooler heads prevailed and the network decided that airing the new version of Ab Fab would be a big mistake. Here is the report from Nikki Finke:


Happened this afternoon when FBC officially passed on the U.S. remake of the hit UK series. ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS was hot, hot hot. But then Fox execs wondered if it was really for their audience. In other words, too femme? Also EVA ADAMS and TWO DOLLAR BEER are dead.

HMMM. It should be noted that Nikki Finke also reported on the premature demise of the Brittany Snow-fronted Gossip Girl spin-off series … since we haven’t heard officially from The CW if the show has been killed, we can’t be sure of Finke‘s track record when it comes to reports like this for the coming Fall TV season. I must admit, I was suspicious that this US remake would be viable when we got word it was going into production last year. Not even seeing the new Patsy and Edina (Kristen Johnston and Kathryn Hahn) in full costume on the set of the series was enough to make me a believer that the remake would work. I think it’s in everyone’s best interest that they leave this series to die before it begins. The original is classic … it cannot be duplicated in the way that it would need to in order for it to be a viable remake, not here in the US at least. I say … let it die.

    Agree trent!! Unfortunetly, the US cant get it right wen it comes to shows like abfab and kath and kim, our humour doesnt translate well to US audience!! they just shouldnt try!!

  2. lisaasil says:

    Thank gawd! Some things are sacred and you should never try to duplicate.

  3. Blair says:

    Completely agree about our british humour not translating to american audiences. Also I hope its not true about them cancelling the gossip girl spin off!!!

  4. kittycatastrophe says:

    The initial reports made the American version sound really messy so hopefully the plug has been pulled.

  5. tanya says:

    ‘the office’ is an american adaption of the british version. but it works because it finally found its own groove. with the first few episodes, they pretty much copied the british version and it didn’t work. it sounds like the american version of abfab was going to be a straight up replica and you know that wouldn’t have worked. hopefully these reports are true and they’ve ditched it. no good could come of it.

  6. Erwann says:

    They have to let it die : AbFab belongs to the UK… It wasn’t made and written for/by the US anyway.

  7. Aaron says:

    THANK GOD!! Maybe this means someone actually learned something from Kath & Kim….Just because it works over seas, doesn’t mean it’s going to work in the US. The whole reason AbFab worked was because of the actresses playing the parts. It would be like trying to do a remake of The Golden Girls….You can’t duplicate chemistry.

  8. Carl says:

    I just don’t see why we keep trying to remake things here in the US…be it TV shows or Movies…has Hollywood lost all creativity????

    P.S. I loved last weeks episode of Gossip Girl, though that was the only episode I’ve ever watched (cuz I love Brittany Snow) I may start watching it next season…and I hope they continue with this spin off, it looks like it could be good.

  9. AnonInSoCal says:

    Yeah, you’re all right–American re-treads of British shows never, ever work. Like “All In The Family.”

    Morons.

  10. Carl says:

    I don’t think anybody is saying it never works, it’s just that it seems like all they’re doing anymore is taking shows from other countries and remaking them into shows here..why can’t they just try to create something fresh and original, ya know?

  11. Val says:

    There are some good adaptations. But, they seem to be few and far between. For every Three’s Company and The Office, there’s a Kath & Kim, AbFab, and Spaced that don’t make it.
    I have a very big problem with the studios idea of “well, it worked over there. let’s get some big names and make it our own.”
    I know writers and I know they have ideas, but until studios start taking some real risks, I don’t see this problem getting any better.

    I don’t think the US should try to recreate British shows here generally. I love my BBC and I can see the actual British versions I love without having them bastardized for an American audience. (And this is an American talking..)

  13. Paul says:

    I’m an American too – and I’m so happy they are leaving AbFab alone! The UK version was perfect just as it is… anything US television touches turns to shiiiiiiiit (except Weeds, gotta love Weeds haha).

    Sanford and Son as well. It was originally Steptoe and Son, I believe.
    That said, most UK to US remakes shouldn’t be attempted. Red Dwarf was really bad. Painful. Fawlty Towers too. And wasn’t there an attempt at The Young Ones?
    Part of the reason The Office works, is that Ricky Gervais is/was involved, whereas another recent remake attempt (that I don’t think even made it to the pilot stage, thankfully) was Spaced, which is one of the greatest Britcoms ever. The producers of the remake didn’t contact the original creators, but then announced that they were involved with the pilot episode, which was a bald faced lie. SO glad that one didn’t make it off the ground.
    But my favorite bad remake was Coupling, which was a decent British comedy, but it was basically the UK’s answer to Friends. So another country’s remake of Friends, being remade here. Ooookay.
    But I digress. Some remakes can work, most won’t.

    Patsy’s style was nothing like either of these two!!

    First off, it’s not that AbFab’s humor is so exclusively British that it can’t work in the U.S. – obviously, huge numbers of us get it. No, the problem with adapting something like this for American audiences is: Sophistication.. our Networks (not the pay/premiums) pander to a cross-section of America to maximize advertising $… if people in Montana or New Mexico don’t get when Patsy mumbles about stealing ‘ludes from Keith Moon’s ski chalet in Gstaad or get the visual joke of Lacroix excessses, millions of consumers start punching new numbers into the remote. it’s not the Brit humor that’s not working, it’s a level of HIP that’s in short supply here – We live in a nation that generally doesn’t read, gets our news, fashion and diet suggestions from corp. news, vacuous gossip magazines and reality shows. Smarten up the population and maybe they’ll serve us mass entertainment that’s as smart and funny as the orig. AbFab.
