Since British television is all the rage these days (how many Downton Abbey parties have you been to this month?), MTV is moving forward with their U.S. remake of the popular U.K. series The Inbetweeners, which is a raunchy-as-hell comedy about four awkward teenage boys who try to be not-so-awkward but end up being more awkward because they are awkward teenage boys. It's funny, OK? Anyway, since the network hasn't learned from their mistake the last time they attempted to Americanize a popular British show - the ratings that Skins U.S. got still haunt them to this day - the U.S. version of The Inbetweeners will premiere on August 20 at 10:30 PM. 

Something tells us they won't be recreating this scene in the show. Not sure about this one. Oh, and definitely not this one. Why are they even making this show, again?
