I don't care one direction or the other, but for example Doctor Who is just fine without having to be redone and loved by people in America regardless of the accents. Is there a reason you'd love to see it redone outside of just having the show have more exposure in America? I can understand the sentiment.

Oh, no I definitely do _not_ want it redone. It's better this way. I love Puffin Rock too (an Irish show) and can't fathom that with American accents.

Thank you for clarifying I just lost what you were conveying.

Speaking of Doctor Who, David Tennant is the same role in the American remake of Broadchurch and he has the worst American accent I've ever heard. It's set in California and he sounds like he's from everywhere else at the same time.

That's kind of odd, they should just let him have his accent, it's not like anybody is going to question why anybody from another country would ever live in America... I've not seen Broadchurch though so I don't know how out of character it would be.
