absolutely fabulous in america.jpgOh boy.
The first images of the US version of Absolutely Fabulous have hit the internet, and with them, comes news:
Kristen Johnson, whom you might remember as the girl that proclaims New York o-v-e-r before falling to her death in a later SATC episode, is set to play Patsy, while Kathryn Hahn, who recently starred as Kate Winslet’s neighbor in Revolutionary Road, plays Eddie.
As for the show’s stylist, only his/her work can be seen so far.

Oh wow this could go either way, really really good or truly bad, but i do love me Kirsten Johnson.

Why are they making an American version. Strange. Although i do think Kirsten Johnsons great.

I see this failing miserably and I hate that there always has to be an “american” version for all my favourite British shows. I mean “The Office” (US) is funny as hell, but the British version is classic.

they won’t be able to use the joke about patsy not eating in years; no offense to Kirsten Johnson, she just doesn’t look like someone who lives on cigarettes and champagne.

commenter #4 are you kidding? perhaps you haven’t seen recent photos of her- she’s skinnier than lilo in some. scary.

i apologize, Kirsten Johnson DOES look like someone who lives on cigarettes and champagne.
i guess i don’t read enough celebrity gossip… hmm.

FYI – Her name is Kristen Johnston not Kirsten Johnson.

Guest 6, if it makes you feel better the Kirsten Johnson i remember from satc was overweight. Ive never seen her in anything since.

i love the original does any one know what network will it be on?

It will be on Fox.

Ew. Why are they making a US version? The orginal was a classic, this will be awful!
