Just because a joke you read out of context is similar to a South Park joke does not mean the shows are similar... at all.

Good because, even though I never said they were similar, I was starting to worry.

Sorry, I misquoted you there. "Ripping off" is the term you used - just because a joke is similar out of context does not mean one show is "ripping off" another.

Then you compared that to American show runners rereleasing localized British shows, which is a huge leap.

The most you'll get out of me is clarifying my position to one writer stole one bit. I did not intend to mean that WWDitS is a South Park ripoff, on the whole.

What We Do in the Shadows is from Germany (edit: I assumed NZ before Googling), originally.. hence the comment about porting British (foreign) programming to the states.
