Yeah. I sometimes notice that when I watch sitcoms or other comedy stuff on TV, because they can't translate the jokes.

I watched a bit of the old pilot... The only redeeming factor was Richard Ayoade. I was wondering who they'd cast as Moss, because I just don't see how anyone could play him better. Obviously they thought the same thing.

Maybe I'm just too used to the original version.

The parts that they are filming are supposed to take place in the 60s so they've put up all these old-looking signs on one street. All in Swedish though, which I find weird. It was the same with the Wallander remake that the BBC made. If you remake something, do it properly and don't set it in Sweden with all the characters speaking English.
