Remake, spinoff or sequel? Remake

Source material: A hit Australian comedy that premiered in 2002.

What's new: Not a great deal, actually. It may be a little less broad than the original, but the core of the show -- the relationship between a woman (Molly Shannon) and her adult (but not very grown-up) daughter (Selma Blair) remains intact.

What's not: See above.
