We should all come together and demand better or our missionary work in the US will be in vane, as the Americans will think Benny Hill is still alive and we all piss ourselves laughing at him. I did at one point only so as I wouldn't be sent to bed!
American audience tho as someone else just said not catering to British. They must plan programming according to demand and what gets good rating's I would think? Some Americans I imagine want to envision the Uk as are you being served etc.. cause it's quaint and "cute" stereotypical :rolleyes: Not the more recent controversial stuff/documentary's etc....... |

Re: BBC America
I was very excited to see a trailer for "coked up Britain", an insight in to the world of cocaine use in Britain and how dramatically it has touched all walks of life. It was in the last week, not sure when as the TiVo recorded it.
I watched 5 minutes and turned it off. It was trash. It was not a documentary at all, it was portrayed by actors. A stereotypical vision of what the media saw as coke use. Whatever happened to the real documentaries with real people. The only real people you see on TV these days are the plebs showing their disgusting clamor for attention on marooned on moron island and the like :rolleyes: (and if any Fox executives are reading this - I have registered that idea for a show name) :p
