   Most Americanisation of British shows are awful - "Red Dwarf", "Doctor   
   Who", and "Torchwood" are just recent examples. Even the American version   
   of Sherlock is pitiful compared to the British one.   
      
   The Americanised version of "Fawlty Towers" isn't even recognisable, but   
   at least they did change the name to "Cheers".   
      
      
      
   Your newsreader software needs it's preferences / settings fixed - it's   
   not prefixing quoted material in your replies with anything, which makes   
   it difficult to se what you've typed from what you're replying to.
