Pratt



I was moving books from left to right earlier today, and stumbled across this book with watercolors by Hugo Pratt, that I bought in Italy last year.
Enjoy !

Why do the goddam yankees always have to copy our brilliant german ideas ?


Original


Uninspired copy !

Can' they think of something funny on their own ?

On the other hand, I can perfectly see, that having a VIP stick his hand up a puppet's back is the perfect way to raise attention for intestinal cancer-check ups ;)

MORE EVIDENCE



Ok, so we inventive, highly-creative Vorsrung Durch Technik-Germans come up with this wonderful concept of a real-life-comedian and his hilarious day to day adventures, called PASTEWKA, and what do the yanks do ?
Turning it into an uninspired mediocre sitcom starring the pathetic nobody LARRY DAVID, calling it "Curb Your Enthusiasm" or something, and what's even worse, while our version deliberatly limits itself to fellow comedians under contract of the same broadcastingstation, CYE dares to have "real" VIPs from film,politics and sports appearing in it as themselfes, how pathetic can you get?




OR THIS ONE:

Two weeks ago the German show around "DR. Psycho" premiered on the tellie, about a nerdy, psychotic police-psychologist, very funny, very original. What do the yanks do ?
They steel it, send it back in time and revamp to something called "Monk", and the Tommies?
Even worse, they take out the comedy part, keepp the bit about the psychologist who needs help himself, send it even further back in time and call it "Cracker ". Evil, filthy little buggers.



One Good Thing :

I'm only glad that so far nobody worldwide had the idea to copy our show "Stromberg", about this pathetic nerdy looser in an office.
And they better not dare, or I'll throw an Emmy at them!
