Again, they are listed in no particular order.
The Office

Lets start with an easy one.
Now, many lines from the show have bled into American popular culture and conversation.
Whose Line Is It Anyway?
It ran for ten years with rotating guests and a few regulars.
Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?
Touching Evil
Yes, I know this show was cancelled very early on in America.
Yes, there are more popular US TV remakes.
And yes, a lot of Americans have likely never heard of this show.
Both sitcoms revolved around a father and son junk dealing business.
The ones chosen, in my opinion, had the most impact in their specific genre.
For example,Millionairewas the most significant game show remake.
And there is no reality-based program more popular and impactful today thanAmerican Idol.
It is based on the British singing competitionPop Idol, whichX Factorreplaced in 2004.
