Very nice show!

Wasn't it clever? KERA, the Dallas PBS affiliate that brought MPFC to the US, played Reggie on Sunday nights as part of their Brit Com lineup. It was a great way to end the week.

They did a remake, "Reggie Perrin" about ten years ago with Martin Clunes. I found it amusing but not near the original.

The original seemed to get quite a bit of play in the US at one time, but then it faded away.

I remember ABC's Americanization attempt with Richard Mulligan in 83 or so. Didn't dig it.

The original series aired again in Dallas I think in the early 90s but you're right, it hasn't gotten the repeated airings many others have. At least I didn't notice if it did.

The original was on Channel 13 (PBS) in New York, uncut with no commercials. I don't remember exactly when, but I'd guess the early or mid 1980's.
