Comedy series co-produced by the BBC and Showtime.
When a successful British husband-and-wife comedy team are lured by Hollywood to produce a new version of their hit series for a stateside audience, they're initially thrilled at the prospects. But they soon realize what the American execs have in store for their precious show – including replacing the erudite British lead with the quintessential comedy star, Matt LeBlanc – and begin to sink deeper into the quicksand that is the TV business.

Shawn, in a strained voice, asked her why she was leaving him to which she replied that he knew the reason why!
