NBC to remake Prime Suspect?

[Bob The Skutter]

Although for some reason it says Prime Suspect was a BBC Drama when it was actually ITV.

Maybe the UK version was shown on BBC America So they decided just to said BBC so the audience knows what show they are on about?

Yeah, looks like it has aired on BBC America. So you're probably right, but for some reason it bugs me.

They can't say "ITV" - Americans would think that's some kind of medical technology. BBC is the only TV station in the UK Americans have ever heard of.

Most UK viewers have probably never heard of NBC, FX, TNT, AMC, etc but it'd still be factually wrong to say their shows were on FOX.

Maybe the people who run PR for the US networks think their audiences are dumb?
Please note i am not calling Americans dumb.

Prime Suspect was always shown on PBS, through the Mystery! series.

Prime Suspect was always shown on PBS, through the Mystery! series.

So that makes the whole BBC thing more confusing. Why not say ITV or even just British drama instead.

There out just to annoy us.
Unless adding the BBC name to something makes the Americas think it going to be a higher quality?

I wish they wouldn't do a remake. I don't think anyone would be better than Helen Mirren.

Lord, I agree with this so much. Please, don't.
