I think the point about budgets might be central. American audiences are used to tv shows made with a certain amount of budgetary flair, which we just don;t do. Maybe our shows just seem a bit small and homemade to them?

I never considered that before actually. I always assumed that it was a case of networks and studios assuming too little of their audience (assuming that they wouldn;t be able/willing to make the leap), actually, thinking about it, it may be that they assume a greater level of sophistication in their viewers.
