Peep Show Getting Another Shot at American Adaptation with Gender Reversal at FX with Karey Dornetto

Of the pre-existing shows and movies that are getting gender swapped as a modern “woke” update, Peep Show from the female perspective is actually quite the fascinating prospect. 

So much of the long running UK comedy is driven from a literal male gaze and accompanying perspective and seeing it from the other side opens up a whole other world of possibilities should FX order it to series. Knowing that a Portlandia writer, Karey Dornetto, is attached is also very alluring. 

Definitely, FX would be the network to take a chance on such a project, but we’ll just have to wait and see if they do indeed pick it up.
