--Stephen L. Eberly, author of "Patty Duke: A Bio-Bibliography" An excellent source for information on foreign TV shows that made it to American TV. I use Terrace often as his knowledge on TV shows is by far superior to the few others who research this subject. Terrace is the best source to go to, by far.--Bart Polin, actor/producer/standup comedian This authoritative compilation is both an invaluable resource for TV historians and an informative, entertaining read for fans. Extremely well-organized and thorough.--Paula Finn, author of "Sitcom Writers Talk Shop: Behind the Scenes with Carl Reiner, Norman Lear, and Other Geniuses of TV Comedy" This is another amazing research project that Terrace has done to document an area of television that has been very important in the world of broadcasting. Many classic shows first originated in foreign countries and have been adapted successfully for American television.

This book is a valuable collection for television researchers and executives.--David Schwartz, TV historian, coauthor of "Encyclopedia of TV Game Shows" This skillfully-organized book is an extremely useful resource for those interested in or researching English-speaking, foreign TV programs that aired in the U.S. between 1955 and 2020; its comprehensive index offers detailed listings to 412 Series along with five helpful Appendixes that sort the series by country.--Chip Taylor, president, Chip Taylor Communications, LLC Vincent Terrace delivers another impeccably researched book on TV. This fascinating read is full of information on both familiar and unfamiliar series from around the world.--Maggie McCormick, author of "I'll See You Again: The Bittersweet Love Story and Wartime Letters of Jeanette MacDonald and Gene Raymond" Vincent Terrace has long stood to me as the icon of TV programming historians, and his knack for digging up fascinating who-knews--as well as making me say, "Turns out I wasn't crazy--that show I saw as a teen really existed!"--shines again with this latest book. Carrie Fisher was signed to play Edina in an ABC version of AbFab? Three U.

S. stabs at redoing Fawlty Towers? We all know The Office and Shameless were based on hits from over the pond, but Telemundo aired a remake of Charlie's Angels from Spain? Let's run that again! And, with his loving premise and character details, Terrace makes revisiting "foreign" favorites a treat. I loved The New Avengers, with Joanna Lumley as Purdy, even more than then the original. And I loved this Terrace's new treasure trove.--John Griffiths, former longtime television critic, Us Weekly, former senior arts and entertainment editor, The Advocate Vincent Terrace's latest project lives up to his high standards as an author and his reputation as a meticulous researcher of television history. This book will be an invaluable resource for anyone researching foreign series broadcast in the United States or interested in TV history. Highly recommended.--Jane Klain, manager, Research Services, The Paley Center for Media.
