And the US boys are there making their UK debut. That explains a couple tweets I saw from Rutledge and Adam recently.

And it turns out it's already been sold to several other countries besides Australia. Wow!

Not the interview, but still good. Skip to 2:30.

First off, I just completed watching S1 of TGUS, and I must say, it is surprisingly good. TG-UK is the benchmark, and the bar is set pretty high. However, the shows are very similar (as it should be), but the presenters really do a great job. They have taken the spirit and format of the british show, and given it an american twist. Surprisingly refreshing!
