[edit] Dialogue

As an American watching the TV show I found it very enjoyable, but there were large segments in the dialogue that simply eluded me. Am I just not getting the britishisms or do folks in the UK have trouble following this show as well due to its heavy use of esoteric cultural references? 76.212.159.247 01:46, 11 November 2007 (UTC) Sandy

[edit] Separation

I'd suggest creating a separate article for the TV adaptation, preferably at Absolute Power (TV series), with a summary style section here. Please have a look at WP:LEAD; there is information in the lead of this article that is not repeated in the main body.--Opark 77 21:38, 11 November 2007 (UTC)
