Coupling
I happened to catch an episode or two on PBS.
This is much better written and funnier than Friends.
Anyone else seen it?
If I recall, NBC tried to make an American version of it last Fall, and it sucked compared to the original.

Jane's HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT
I guess I have to buy the DVDs on ebay or something. They never consistently show it on PBS.

Thank God for PBS. They have imported some great English shows. Coupling is usually on Sunday nights. I love the theme song. I agree with DeltaSig that the writers for the American version should have studied the original a bit more.

I've been watching it on netflix, only seen the first 2 seasons so far. It's so funny, better than almost everything on American tv right now. Instead of remaking it, they should have just shown the BBC episodes on prime time.

I just found Coupling last night and I loved it! It's pretty original, and since we steal most of our ideas from the British anyway, why not watch their shows?

I absolutely love this show. I manage to catch it on PBS or BBC Canada. I haven't been watching it lately though, Jeff leaves the show? That sucks, I love his character.

I love Coupling! I watch on both PBS and BBC America. I miss Jeff terribly (I wish that he could come back)! I think that Oliver guy is way too weird and annoying!

I will reach through the television set and smack Oliver if he says, "Craziness!" one more time! 
No one will ever, EVER, be able to replace Jeff. "The Man With Two Legs" is my all-time favorite episode.
