[[ WARNING: THREAD HIJACK AHEAD ]]

hehehehe...you know, I was just wondering if you all were referring to the show that we have here in Great Britain. I take it you're watching an American version of the UK show "What Not to Wear"? If so, you're probably watching some half-crap version. That's usually how it goes when someone from TLC decides to rip-off a show from Britain.

Case in point? Trading Spaces is an exceedingly lame version of Changing Rooms. I know, I know...I'm gonna get hate mail for saying that but it's my opinion. Did you all know that they have a New Zealand version of Changing Rooms/Trading Spaces? It's almost as sorry as the US one.

Another case in point? How about the sitcom "Men Behaving Badly" which was on for a while in the US circa 1999-2000. That was a take off on the classic British show of the same name. Of course, the English one was funny and the American one was just stupid. That's why one became a "classic" and the other one got panned.

So before you all go spouting off on "blame the British" it's not their fault. It's the doofus American producers which wreck perfectly good shows.
