"Coupling" (2003)

Based on: Britcom "Coupling" (2000-2004)

Hit or Miss? Miss

The original "Coupling" was essentially a British take on "Friends," so a lot of people wondered why NBC wanted to remake the British show in 2003. None of those questions were answered when the show premiered; it got buried by critics and was off the air after a month.
