Line 19: :Someone clearly pulled this "information" out of their behind because "Cybill" was *NOT* a U.S. remake of AbFab, even if they were vaguely similar. "Cybill" was based on the career of it's star, Cybill Shepherd. The plots aren't even particularly similar other than the boozing friend and the rocky relationship between mother/daughter. (The daughter is nothing like Saffron in AbFab; Zoey in "Cybill" was very hip, wisecracking and sardonic. Saffy was a bookworm and very square.) "High Society" has been called a "remake" but could more accurately be referred to as "inspired by" as it's really not similar in the slighest except for the main character. There was only one planned spin-off, an actual remake of the series to star Carrie Fisher, and it fell through. Cybill was originally planned as an unofficial remake of AbFab, but once Cybill Shepard became involved in the project it morphed into a vehicle for her, and was sanitized for prime-time 90s American television.[[Special:Contributions/76.190.244.215|76.190.244.215]] ([[User talk:76.190.244.215|talk]]) 14:37, 26 June 2011 (UTC) == Gay men == | |||
