Based on Superheroes in the real world, here's trailer for a new British sitcom - No Heroics - that airs in a couple of weeks. Which just about gives all non-UK readers time to sign up for the excellent British torrent site, UK Nova :)

Sadly it'll be something else that American TV will attempt to digest and regurgitate thus completely stripping it of all originality and humor that made it good in the beginning....you hear me Kath and Kim?!?!?!?!
Did you say it "airs" in a couple of weeks? Are British censors allowing f-bombs on TV now, or is this only going to "air" on the net?
As far as I recall (and it's been a few years) swearing on British TV is pretty common after the 9pm watershed.
We drop F Bombs and more recently C bombs on primetime, sunday night TV (BBC none of the dodgy cable channels) with gay abandon. In fact a modern drama without swearing would be destroyed as unrealistic and 'twee'. Strangely the world continues to spin, the rain still falls and life goes on.
Apparently next up, is nudity. I blame Richard Dawkins and his godless followers for letting all that reality out of the bag.

This does not even look good in the beginning. In fact, it looks like something Americans would do and have already done. Surprisingly stupid.
Thats looks really funny. What channel is it going to be on?
actually, Dickus, American TV already tried something like this, "The Tick," but it failed: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Tick_(2001_TV_series)
