The U.S. version of Kath & Kim is almost upon us, and NBC has released a special preview to get everyone excited.
It didn’t work. While I’m a fan of the two female leads in their own right - I’m thinking of Selma Blair’s bang-up job in Cruel Intentions when I say that - neither of the actresses really manages to capture the essence of what their characters are about.
I mean, it’s Americans attempting to pull off Australian humour. Enough said.
To see for yourself whether this latest version does the original justice, follow the jump to check out a preview of both for comparison.
The American version, with Molly Shannon as Kath and Hellboy II’s Selma Blair as Kim.
The original Kath & Kim, as portrayed by Aussies Jane Turner and Gina Riley.
