american sarcasm = contradiction in terms
Off course the original did not succeed in the US. I once gave a David Badiel book to one of my American friends and he didn't get it either.
It's just a different kind of humor. It's like Seinfeld didn't take off in Holland or Germany (although I would credit the dubbing in addition to the cultural differences).
I thought it fucking rocked. My all-time favorite alongside the Larry Sanders Show and the Simpsons.
