I have been watching this new version and I watched all of the old version. I think both are funny. They are similar but with enough of a difference to make it worth a watch. My husband likes some of the older version better and our roommate likes some of the new version better. I can't wait to see what's next in the new version and I hope to see more episodes than the British. The British one kinda just stopped. I would love to see the bed and breakfast actually functional.
