Post BBC America - a US originated Who series?
Quote:
disenchantment with the casting of 55-year-old Scottish actor Peter Capaldi as the 12th incarnation of Doctor Who may be even more profound than originally estimated. In spite of repeated admonitions to remain calm, the US wing of the global British media empire has reportedly quickly moved beyond the grumbling stage. Less than 24 hours after the global announcement, executives at BBC America have quietly begun to explore what is being termed, at least in the UK, as the “Nuclear Option” – A US-made version of Doctor Who.

I hope this is speculative kink-bait BS, but again it's something I have felt was likely to happen eventually anyway.

This was handled pretty nicely in Community S4 E3 Conventions of Space and Time.

Made by Starz - which, BTW, is partly responsible for the rather odd The White Queen series - for which there is an English edit, and a US edit which probably borders on soft porn if the Spartacus series are anything to go by.
