Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Two shows on opposite sides of the Atlantic can be compared with each other.
Typically, the older show is remade on the other side of The Pond. Most often, a UK show is remade in the US. In the case of foreign reality or game shows, this is because they are not usually aired by US commercial networks, and this allows American audiences to directly participate by becoming eligible contestants. Also tends to occur more with comedies, police procedurals and shows about government agencies, since those things can be very region specific. Therefore if the show wants to expand its audience, it usually has to do it by creating a separate series rather than simply working with a local broadcast network because the new audience would either not get the jokes or not understand the plot. Otherwise, British shows rarely feel the need to do any localization for Americans and the same generally applies to American shows: despite the actual massive cultural, economic and political differences between the two nations. This trope can also apply to Canadian shows, although in this case the trope is very rarely applied even when it probably should be, due to the similarities between (anglophone) Canadian and American culture. American series tend to be much more popular in Canada than Canadian series, where the reverse is rarely true, even as the CBC has a sizeable American audience near the border. Note that this is not the trope about shows supposedly set in one country actually being filmed in another: that's California Doubling.

Compare Foreign Remake.

Sherlock (UK) / Elementary (US): modern-day adaptations of Sherlock Holmes. (Although the makers of Elementary are at pains that it isn't "Sherlock in America''.)
The reasoning for that is because, originally, that was the intent, but the creators of Sherlock refused. Instead, a more original American show was created. In fact, the creators of Sherlock maintain that Elementary isn't Sherlock Holmes at all.

Transcontinental variant: Mister Rogers' Neighborhood (US)/ Mr. Dressup (Canada): Justified in that both stars worked together in a Canadian precursor of the former show before Rogers returned to the US and his understudy Ernie "Mr. Dressup" Coombs decided to stay and create his own show.
The U.S. Mister Rogers' Neighborhood even originated in Canada, debuting in 1963 on the CBC (including the trolley). So it's a show that started in Canada by an American, continued in the U.S., and also led to another similar show in Canada (hosted by an American-Canadian).

Phil Spector (US) / Joe Meek (UK): Pioneers who reshaped the role of the Record Producer by basically using the recording studio itself as an instrument, utilizing various techniques to build a unique signature sound, producing some classic hits in the first part of The '60s, but also mentally ill men who would eventually become murderers (in Meek's case, a murder-suicide). As it happened, Spector was a fan of Meek's work and tried to contact him, but Meek, a paranoid-schizophrenic, was convinced that Spector was stealing his ideas and shunned him.

An honourable mention for Red Dwarf, as plans for a US remake saw two separate pilot episodes filmed, but test audience reactions were at best mixed and the proposal went no further.
The whole process was actually spoofed in the comics. The adaptation of the series being pitched had Rimmer and Lister as best buddies (rather than the Vitriolic Best Buds they were in canon), the Cat was a hip teenage girl, Kryten was a biologically challenged boy (called Cry 10), and Rimmer was disabled (rather than dead as in canon). Also, the human race was still alive, the ship was not three million years into deep space, and aliens existed. The pitch in question had an alien try to kill them, only for Rimmer to miraculously walk again to save the day.

The Tragically Hip (Canada) / Midnight Oil (Australia): Long-running Alternative Rock groups fronted by bald singers, who happen to be wildly influential superstars in their home countries (both of which are in the Anglosphere but outside the much more prominent US and UK) but are virtual unknowns everywhere else, in part because of the heavy Creator Provincialism in their lyrics.
Midnight Oil also carry an overseas equivalent in U2 (Ireland), not only for the alternative rock sound and creator provincialism, but also the heavy focus on socially conscious lyricism. The one big difference is that U2 has enjoyed the kind of worldwide popularity that evaded both Midnight Oil and The Tragically Hip. Midnight Oil was more successful in the U.S. than the Hip, albeit as a One-Hit Wonder with some more hits on alternative radio.

The whole process was actually spoofed in the comics. The adaptation of the series being pitched had Rimmer and Lister as best buddies (rather than the Vitriolic Best Buds they were in canon), the Cat was a hip teenage girl, Kryten was a biologically challenged boy (called Cry 10), and Rimmer was disabled (rather than dead as in canon). Also, the human race was still alive, the ship was not three million years into deep space, and aliens existed. The pitch in question had an alien try to kill them, only for Rimmer to miraculously walk again to save the day.

Life On Mars (UK) / Life On Mars (US): Present-day police detective is transported to 1973.
Spain had its own version, too, in which a cop is transported back to post-Franco Spain. It was called The Girl from Yesterday after a 1980 song by local group Nacha Pop.
There is also a Russian version, but with an interesting twist: the modern-day cop is rough-and-ready, used to dealing with modern post-communism gangsters, whereas his 1970's counterparts are very much by-the-book, and are horrified by his "cowboy" tactics. Also the name was changed from Life On Mars, because David Bowie was largely unknown in Soviet Russia. Instead the series is called Dark Side of the Moon, because Pink Floyd did have an underground following there at that time. Another unique element of the Russian version is that the main character is not simply dropped back in the 1970s. Instead, he takes his own father's place and identity.
A Czech version, entitled Svět pod hlavou (taken from the lyrics to the song "V stínu kapradiny" by singer Jana Kratochvílová), was produced as well, in which a cop is transported to 1980s Czechoslovakia.

Garth Marenghi's Darkplace (UK)/The Spoils of Babylon (US): Spoof of 1980s TV, where a pompous, conceited hack writer introduces episodes of an inept, low-budget adaptation of his work. Demonstrates and parodies the difference between British and American TV quite well: Darkplace is a ridiculously cheap-looking horror schlock trying (and failing) to be a smart commentary on society, while Babylon is an overwrought, self-important, eye-searingly over-saturated family melodrama trying (and failing) to be the Great American Novel.

Iced Earth (US) / Blind Guardian (Germany) both specialise in dark, dramatic speed/power metal. They have been friends ever since they first toured Germany together in 1990. For a time they were both signed to the Germany-based label, Century Media. In the early 2000s, Iced Earth's frontman Jon Schaffer and Blind Guardian's singer Hansi Kursch formed a side project called Demons and Wizards, which solidified the friendship between the two groups. As you can tell from his name, Schaffer has German heritage and so is naturally drawn to the country anyway. As Friendly Fandoms go, their fandoms are quite high up there.

Archie Bunker's Place (US) / In Sickness and in Health (UK): A direct continuation of the original show featuring the final years of the aging couple.

Rod Stewart (UK) / Bob Seger (US): Raspy-voiced singer-songwriters born in 1945 who launched careers in The '60s with a music style that fused Rock, Soul, Blues and Folk Music influences. After spending time as an Acclaimed Flop with a niche audience, their careers got busted wide open with a huge hit single ("Maggie May" for Stewart, "Night Moves" for Seger), and they became icons, albeit while facing criticism that their music got too slick after they became famous. The two have had an on-again/off-again friendship over the years, getting into a bit of a feud when Stewart had a hit with a Cover Version of "Downtown Train" not long after Seger mentioned to him that he was going to record the song (Seger released his own version a couple of decades later). Stewart made Seger's "Still the Same" the Title Track of a Classic Rock Cover Album.

Jarre also carries a cross-Channel equivalent in Mike Oldfield (UK); both Jarre and Oldfield are solo artists known for their progressive, ambient, and mostly instrumental music, their constantly changing sound, and for being considered pioneering New Age artists despite not actually being New Age (Oldfield being a Progressive Rock act and Jarre an electronica one).

Their most famous songs ("Chasing Cars" and "How to Save a Life" respectively) got massive boosts in popularity after being featured in Grey's Anatomy and peaked around the same late-2006 time frame. Each band is widely successful in their home country but only known for their aforementioned most famous song across The Pond.

American Bandstand (US) or Soul Train (US) / Top of the Pops (UK): Long-running music shows featuring popular artists performing in a studio with teenage audience members/dancers.
The German cultural sphere has had several similar shows, though without the teen audience members/dancers (with the exception of the last one):
Beat-Club and its successors Musikladen and Extratour (Germany) — Mainstream pop, rock
Musikantenstadl and its successor Stadishow (Austria) – German popular folk, plus international pop/folk acts
And for the Dutch, the legendary TopPop, which actually lasted longer than Top of the Pops!
A local version of Top of the Pops for Germany also existed.
Later... with Jools Holland (UK) could be seen as a British take on Don Kirshner's Rock Concert (US). Rockpalast is the German version, which began only a year after Rock Concert and nearly 20 years before Later.

The Goldbergs about an over-the-top Jewish family living in Pennsylvania, USA. Then there's Friday Night Dinner, revolving around an over-the-top Jewish family resident in North London (UK). Paterfamilias Murray Goldberg is most comfortable when not wearing trousers. Meanwhile in England, Martin Goodman goes naked to the waist at every opportunity. Between the two fathers, you would get one fully dressed middle-aged man.
