I never saw the AU version, but I gave up after a couple episodes, despite my fondness for Selma Blair in small clothes.

 I caught a few minutes of this show last night -- the American version -- and I could NOT believe this was on the air.  Amateursville in the acting category and pure drivel on the writing front.  FEH.  No wonder NBC is having problems.  No wonder whatshername lost her job over her programming.

What? 

Is?

the point of this show???

No wonder NBC is having problems. 

They still have The Office and 30 Rock.
But nothing else.

I don't think it suppose to have a point.  It seems to be working kind of like a black comedy.  Although I would not really fully call it a black comedy.  And in most black comedies; the audience is suppose to get a revelation and not the characters.

Well, in any event, it was cancelled. And then there's this update.

NBC to Replace Entire Primetime Schedule with Peacock Logo

In a move that some industry insiders called a game-changer, NBC announced today that it would cancel all of its primetime programs and air a static image of its peacock logo every night between 8 and 10.

While some critics of the move questioned whether viewers would tune in to watch a motionless rendering of a bird for two hours every night, NBC boss Jeff Zucker, the architect of the move, defended the strategy, calling it "maybe my most brilliant decision ever."

"People are saying that the peacock logo has been around forever and has nothing new to offer," Mr. Zucker told reporters. "I say it's a perfect lead-in for Leno."

The move should take some pressure off NBC's embattled entertainment division, whose comedy Kath & Kim was recently found to be in violation of the Geneva Conventions.

Mr. Zucker acknowledged that the decision to air a static bird picture for 14 hours a week would require some re-tooling of NBC's "Must See TV" slogan, but said that the marketing department had already come up with a replacement: "When There's Nothing On TV, Watch It On NBC."

Elsewhere, President Bush said he was against the idea of a car czar, adding, "That's too important a job to entrust to a Russian."
