I'm going to post this on both pages...

I recently watched an episode of The Letdown on Netflix. The show is essentially identical to Workin' Moms on CBC in Canada. What do I mean by "essentially identical"? Well...

the show involves a group of "core" moms dealing with modern baby raising, with a set of recurring secondary characters
a major recurring scene is a support group where they all meet about once an episode
the group is a major source of stress because everyone else (except the core) is seemingly perfect
the main character spends most of her time trying to figure out if baby raising has made them [dumber|boring|tired|etc]
they even look the same, compare this and this

I find it difficult to believe that these two shows appeared at basically the same time from the opposite side of the planet - that's a little to zeitgeisty even for me. Yet I can't find anything in the usual areas that mention a link. Does anyone have anything on this?
