How can the Yanks work with the writers of the UK success 'The Office'. They've already desecrated that series by trying to be TOO clever for their own boots. The American version is just TOO overdone, and quite simply put:....Isn't even funny. Everything gets lost in translation from OUR sense of humour to YOURS. Guess which one we like?? Are there any Americans STILL watching THEIR version of the office?? Case closed. Please let 'Ghostbusters' RIP. Let's just love the memories and watch the replays. Can you imagine 'The Great Escape' 2 or 3?? Pete. They're going to stuff it up aren't they?

They couldn't climb stairs, hated running and generally abhored physical exercise in the first two - I doubt they'll suddenyl have them leaping off tall buildings now. So long as they keep the funny in I will love it!

Just campy and dated. Now, that's not to say the actors aren't great...Murry and Aykroyd are brilliant.

I will watch it because I really did love the franchise growing up but my expectations are disastrously low. I can't tear apart the Indiana Jones film and then turn around and support a new GB film.
