From Heather Hughes of TV.com:

  • Being Erica Moves To Britain
    “Talk Back Productions confirmed that a UK version of Being Erica is in the “very early stages of development”.

The six-part series will be relocated from Toronto to Glasgow and see the leading lady as an NHS worker in the place of a private therapist.” Read more.
