- US Pilot Version of Only Fools and Horses called King of Van Nuys became available online recently.
What are your thoughts?
Clearly ABC rightly didn't think the pilot worked as it never got made as a series back in 2012
In the hands of US network ABC, the pilot called King of Van Nuys was written by Scrubs writers Steven Cragg and Brian Bradley and followed the 'misadventures of two streetwise brothers and their ageing grandfather as they concoct outrageous, morally questionable get-rich-quick schemes
Embarrassing.
Cant americans just enjoy the original for what it is?
American humor is totally different than the uk. Americans would not understand the jokes.
My American friend from Carolina loves Ofah because i got her into it, she has the boxset and says it's better than Friends 😂 also agreed with me that the Uk Office is superior.
my wife and i were raised and born in chicago and the original is one our favorites . i turned my brothers on to this show and they both loved it . its not all the people in the usa who dont get it .
@@jimwichelecki8275That's because they're idiots. I'm from Serbia and we all understand that humor. What's more, this is still the most popular series of all time, on which whole generations grew up and continue to grow up because the series is still repeated over and over again...
Watching this, I thought this was a spoof of Only Fools from a sketch show. I had no idea this was a real US version. What a lot of crap this was.
A delorean and Christopher Lloyd !!!
Crap to the future
Most British sitcoms remade in America take the characters,situation and scripts and just change the slang and phrases to suit America ears .....this took the family dynamic and the wheeling dealing aspect and scrapped the rest ..which is further proof if it was ever needed how good John Sullivan was
I can't believe this was from 2012 ! It has that 90's married with children vibe
Rodney meets Tony Montana, ft father Jack from Father Ted hahaha
Only fools US version featuring Jack Black, Tony Montana and Doc Brown
The thing is, they can get it right. Sanford and Son was a pretty damn good US version of Steptoe and Son.
Wow quite bad they've definitely missed the bus on this one 😂
Probably because grandad didn’t hand out the flyers for the tour
Forget what its supposed to be and Its watchable! I'm watching it and I'm at nearly 10 minutes.
Brilliant! Americans totally know how to remake and destroy the classics.
The trigger part was the most painful
It's too fainfull too watch when did trigger have his part? What time in this episode did he make an appearance?
I didn't know they tried Only Fools.
Don't see anything wrong with it personally. Thought it was funny.
Same here. They don't give any TV show time to settle in America.
I think letting a show go on too long, is often a bigger problem in American tv.
I actually like BBT but 12 seasons? Too long. Walking Dead (which i tired of, about 5 seasons in) went almost the same length and both still have spin-offs airing today, despite the main show having been so long lasting. I mean I get it, money talks but both shows creatively could have done with ending a few seasons earlier(and no spin-offs)
Canned laughter? Surely it has to be
Who would laugh for real?
It's studio based laughter - so yes real people! Obv American humour is quite different compared to the UK. Not the best execution but quite a lot of older comissioned American sitcoms were like this.
Leguizamo is a great actor and a funny guy but this didn't work.. I wouldn't say it was completely terrible like some people do i think the potential was there.
Is that Doc from back to the future?
Yep
This is right up there with beanes of Boston for rubbish
I’d watch it. No different than any other US sitcom.
Do you still have that dog?😀
Young razzle
Wasted a minute of my life Watching that was long enough
They've just hooked into and remade popular Children's TV show, Bluey..
This tops US Inbetweeners remake I thought that was bad enough.
The American version didn't have John Sullivan writing for them. Nuff said. OFAH was perfect for British comedy. American sitcoms have their own ways and methods, and it simply doesn't work for OFAH. Brilliant writer, awesome storylines and fantastic cast and crew. All the pieces of the jigsaw fit perfectly for the British version.
What have they done to Trigger 😮
What did they do to trigger 😢
I know
They had some well known actors taking the parts, so they gave it a good go.
Back to the future meets fools and horses and frazier
Terrible why is sidekick not call Rodney.
Kinda Frasier meets Fools!
Which is crazy when you see Nick Lyndhurst is in the new Frasier series
Doc Brown and Benny Blanco from the Bronx? I'm in
Hey remember me ‘Benny blanco from tha Bronx’ lol ! Why on Earth is this even a thing!!! Only fools meets Martin Scorsese :/
Absolutely crap. Should be a crime to copy an institution 🤔
John Sullivan must be vomiting and turning in his grave. The Americans don't get it do they? Fools and Horses is unique and British and can never be replicated. It was a one off from a true genius and the pairing of David Jason and Nicholas Lyndhurst was a marriage made in heaven. But every Fools character played leading roles and they all bounced off each other. Where on earth did Trigger come from in the mind of John Sullivan? Easy. There is always one in every pub in the country. The Americans should stick to the Frasiers, Friends etc, because they were brilliant comedies for sure. But show some respect to our British culture.
CRAP! If you remove the laughter track then people wouldn't know what's supposed to be funny!!
wait, they actually made this😳 with Leguizamo as Del and Lloyd as Grandad(Great Scott) and is that Fred Dyer (Hunter) as well
It's marginally funny in its own right. I got a few laughs out of it. But Only Fools and Horses, it is not.
Not like the Americans to copy shows….. Britain’s got talent > Americas got talent
Dragons den > shark tank
The voice > the voice USA..
Zzzzzz
Jesus Christ this is bad
Its not the same but its not that bad at all ..just different
6:49 best thing about this video you plonkers
Don't think I'd bother 😂😂😂😂
ABSOLUTE DROSS
it was funny,,but not a torch to da original,,languages and genres DONT TRANSLATE WELL
OMG, APPALLING!
Not an absolute touch on the original
7:40 Nice rak
2mins I gave it...ab crap
The English only fools and horses is one of the greatest English comedies ever made here in England and the UK, and of all time really. With likeable characters. What's this rubbish?! Americans copy our classics far too much and there remakes are rubbish , they have copied George and mildred,only fools and horses, Peepshow, Inbetweeners and sooo much more. And there all junk. And Leguizamo Is an awful actor anyway
Yuk
Embarrassing..
Awful
Terrible
😅 WOW
America just ruin everything they touch. Every British remake they have made has been total a$$. Inbetweeners, the office, Skins, Shameless and this calamity amongst others like Kitchen Nightmares and other documentaries.
MAN THIS IS BAD TO WATCH 👎👎😴😴
🤮🤢
The us should stick to making their own programs and not copy ours it's not the same the americans can't understand our accent 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂jx
