American Exceptionalism: Colombian 'Breaking Bad'

How good are we as a Country?  Let's see...

We aren't at the top of alot of Lists like Infant Mortality Rates, Median Wages or Educational Systems.

We did, however, make this...
Which led to the creation of this...
While we have this guy in America...
The Spanish-speaking Countries have this guy...
As you can see, we made a Show so good that it couldn't just be Subtitled in Spanish (like it already is).  No, they needed to have their own Version, which hopefully got Vince Gilligan some 'cheddar/queso.'

To really drive the point home, consider how nasty and prevalent the Drug Trade is in many Spanish-speaking Countries (especially Colombia- in which their Version is set).

Now consider that they wanted to copy OUR Show about a Drug Dealer.  USA?  USA.  USA!

Of course, we Remade La Reina del Sur, so...even?
I can't wait for Colombian Better Call Saul.  You know that's coming, right?

In summary, USA.
