Like its U.K. counterpart, MTV's Inbetweeners follows a group of guys trying to make their way through high school. It was adapted by Brad Copeland, whose credits include Arrested Development and My Name Is Earl, and the pilot was directed by Flight of the Conchords' Taika Waititi, so those are two more signs the show might deliver the goods.

MTV's The Inbetweeners premieres Aug. 20 at 10:30 p.m. ET. Check out the cast:
