Australian Comedy Hit Kath and Kim Set to Come to America

THE producer of Kath & Kim has hit back at claims the US version of the hit comedy is set to bomb.

Some American critics have suggested that the translated series, set to be screened on NBC, would be the first show of the new US television season to fail.

"I don't care that NBC has set a premiere date of October 9, I don't care that it stars Molly Shannon and Selma Blair," said critic Amy Amatangelo of the TV industry website zap2it.com, "I say Kath & Kim will never see the light of TV."

Television analyst Horizon Media, which publishes a list of odds each new TV year betting on which series will survive, then listed Kath & Kim as one of the most likely to fail.

Last week the British newsletter Popbitch posted links to clips from the new series. The response was overwhelmingly negative.





But Rick McKenna, executive producer of the Australian Kath & Kim starring co-creators Jane Turner and Gina Riley, said the US series was progressing well and had the full support of its American broadcaster.

"The irony is the same week that report [saying Kath & Kim would be the first to fail] came out, NBC saw the pilot . . . and, based on what they'd seen, ordered another seven episodes.

"That sort of puts those critics - who haven't even seen the show - in perspective."

Major changes have been made to the original format to fit the new market - Magda Szubanski's character Sharon will be replaced by a gay man - but McKenna said the result was always intended to be a new imagining of Kath & Kim, not a copy.

The Kath & Kim US version is scheduled to premiere in October.
