Surprising news here: Word is out that Fox has pulled the plug on the McG produced American remake of classic UK sitcom Spaced. Hurray! Be a good boy or girl and buy the North American DVD release of the original show when it hits this summer.

"Spaced is a to-be-envied, to-be-cherished blend of pop culture heartbreak and genuine human hilarity. It's also a foolproof Idiot Test. Here's how it works: if someone ever tries to duplicate, replicate, or otherwise re-do this one-of-a-kind show, they're an Idiot! Aren't we all lucky to have such a thing in our world?"
That's from Patton Oswalt who does some commentary on the NA DVD release. Truer words have never been spoken. Some shaky DVD artwork released earlier this week but it turned out to be not the official artwork. Once we know you'll know.

Phew, that was a close one. How could they even imagine getting close to the original's brilliance.

Awesome.

The North American DVD release isn't going to be edited in any way, is it?

Great, now if they would just cancel that pointless american redo of Life On Mars so The original series can come out on region 1 DVD instead of being shelved until the american version plays.

There is NO WAY in hell the american version will be anywhere even close to the original.

KILL IT NOW!
