    Crossing Over: TV shows from other countries popularity in the US

    With shows ranging from the obvious (The Office) to others of less prominence (Degrassi), what does it take for a show to catch on in the US? With a show like the Office, it seemed a US version was needed, but shows such as Degrassi made it internationally and then had others based off of them. What others are there and what writers, directors, actors made became bigger because of it?

    1, 3, 4, 2, and we’ll pretend 5 didn’t happen. I never thought too much about why he was back in New York in 3, but it’s true there was little explanation outside of John McClane is a bit of an a-hole. It was a great action movie nonetheless.

    Very well written and highlights a period of time when Kanye was nearly immaculate lyrically. Even across his first three albums after this long, they lyrically hold up and the strides he made are evident (even if, as mentioned, we don’t love him as a person).

    Kanye could switch gears with the best musical artists in history while maintaining work that was relevant and Yeezus was proof of this, I think the article touches on this very nicely. From MBDTF to Yeezus, you’d almost not recognize it is the same artist.
