Don't think it was running out of steam in the third season (Some of the best bits are in the third season) but they wanted to quit while they're ahead.

It was struggling at the end of the second series. 3rd was lacking in quality and the film was an abomination.
Can only assume the US version would be rock bottom before it starts
I think I heard on the radio today they're making a second film
Yep I heard right

In 30-40 seconds I hated it. Where Mr. Gilbert kicks the door open and pulls down the poster. It just shows how OTT the show was going to be

seen some bad US remakes, but that was easily the worst

Hmm, trailer not as bad as I thought it would be. I think if you look at it as if it was a completely new show then it's not that bad. But it's not a new show and there fore comparison is inevitable.
It highlights how different British and American culture and audiences are. We appreciate the bad language and mockery and sarcasm used because it's 'us', whereas clearly American audiences are more conservative and soft. The main shortcoming is basically Jay's character, there's just no way you could get that into an American show. I reckon it'll go down well in America. But at the risk of turning into a generic high school show instead of standing out like our version.

Well, while we're on the subject of remakes - you all will be glad to know, that after rejecting it last year ABC made a decision to bring back their "Only Fools And Horses" remake project. The network formally issued order for new "retooled" pilot with almost entire originally contracted cast and crew from last years dead project returning.
The show, should the new pilot succeed, will be called "Kings Of Van Nuys" and star John Leguizamo as Del, Dustin Ybarra as Rodney and Christopher Lloyd as their aging grandfather.

And it's over for "The Inbetweeners (US)" - MTV announced that “While we won’t be moving forward with another season of The Inbetweeners, we enjoyed working with the show’s creators and such a talented, funny cast,”

Just tried to watch the first episode and they seem to have taken everything that made the original great and threw it out. Utter ****e.
