I was wondering, Has anyone in the UK notice the amount of shitty American TV shows on British television lately, Seriously why is there so much Americanism in our nation, I can't even watch any music channels with seeing some coon jumping around like he's Re-acting the battle of the Zulu's.So, is anyone else annoyed by this Americanism and also is this the same in any other European nation?.Pic sort of related.
OP here, Sorry about all the errors in my post my Keyboard is sfucked...
>>1681871Butthurt welshfag
>>1681871Why are the lines always wonky not matter what variation of Union flag I see.
>>1681871A superior Union Flag OP. Although I don't really want the Dragon on the flag anyway.
its not as bad as in australia. two and a half men is on ALL the time down here
>>1681892Yes i'm Welsh But consider my self British.>>1681899I've always wondered about that my self...
>I can't even watch any music channels with seeing some coon jumping around like he's Re-acting the battle of the Zulu's.I lol'd, But now i feel like watching Zulu.
I rarely watch the TV anymore, The only time is when there is some British Game panel Show like Have I Got News For You or QI.
I know OP, I don't mind having good american TV, but we make enough shit tv on our own.
Best flag.
Can someone tell me if its the Same shit on Mainland Europe?
>>1681918New Zealand is the worst. Nothing but US shows and outrageous fortune, that show is lowest common denominator shit and everyone here loves it.
>>1681871It's not "americanism" (note: The word you were looking for is westernization), it's "niggerism." Big difference.
I agree, also whales is just a fucking colony. GTFO my union jack.
>>1681918But then again, Australian TV isn't exactly top notch. Like Neighbours, Home and Away and Sea Patrol. Though I heard Brits like Neighbours. Is this true?I only ever watch TV for the Simpsons now.
i don't watch tv, i download and watch american tv shows.
>>1681993Ay, Whats the hatred with Welsh man?
>>1681999on my computer.
>>1681993>implying that England isn't the colony of non-white anglo's on my Britannia
>>1682004Dey just mad cuz you stylin' on them.
>>1681993>Wales. A colony.>WhalesI'm actually not sure if you're a shitty troll or actually a retard.
>>1681998 Neighbours is huge here in the UK. personally I find it shit...
>>1681993Oh one more thing>Union jack.It's the union flag. It's only the Union Jack when it's flown at sea. I've decided. You're a retard.
>>1681918Good lord do I hate that show (americanfag here)Come to think of it, US sitcoms have been dead for a while. We've had to import them from the UK (the Office, Parks & Recreation) or Australia (that one with the single mom and her cunt daughter)
Someone should plant a bomb in ITV2 HQ, The amount of American Shows those bastards play is fucking unbearable...
>>1682042ITV has always been shit. I'm surprised this hasn't happened already.
>>1682040My wife and kids is a good sitcom (It's the only show that has niggers in it, and isn't all about being niggers. In fact, strangely enough, race is never even brought up on the show).
>>1682042
>>1682051Never directly no. but watch it again sometime man. The subtext is horribly racist.
>>1682055U so mad.
>>1682040>(that one with the single mom and her cunt daughter)Which one is that?I enjoy Community though, that's American isn't it? Though it's fairly obscure here in Australia.
So what the fuck happen then, How all of a sudden has there been a huge amount of shitty American drama and music on our televisions?
>>1682008Anglo's are finno-ugric
>>1682060>post reaction image>no text>implying he's madPic related, it's what mad actually looks like.
Thank god for the IT Crowd; the only decent British show going on at the moment.
>>1682060>implying your not mad because you try to talk shit about American shows when your on an American website>implying the US doesn't own the internet.>>1682040>implying the American office isn't better since it has Steve carrel and not some unheard of actors that couldn't even land a spot in an American commercial.
I wouldn't have a problem if they convert them for for the British audience like they did for the US with The Office.
>>1682099>Implying I said anything ITT apart from U so mad.
>>1682099See>>1682086
>>1682061Kath & Kim
>>1682099>Steve Carrell. Good actor or remotely funny.
Whales is just a poor shitter in my union, can somebody get the gdp per capita for each region and show that whales is the fucking porrest shithoel.
>>1682162Who gives a fuck about Wales, I have no problem with them, This thread is not even about the Welsh its about the american scum...
>>1682189Nobody gives a fuck about wales but they claim to much benefits.Anyway, american scum, bastards, biggest threat to british culture, immigration enriches culture, americans fuck it up. etc.
>>1682162Jesus Christ kid. Is your keyboard broke or do you just have shit grammar?
>>1682224I just have shit grammer.
>>1682091i think the current series has been a tad shit so far, tbh.
>>1682269Apart from the bum kissing episode I think its been one of the best, myself.
I heard somewhere on 4chan that some nations like Canada and others limit the amount of American show on there TV if thats true, Why doesn't the UK do the same?.
>>1681871not that many American shows, mostly just on the shit channels and about 80% of the music videos come out of the UK>implying we don't have our own niggers to jump around.
>>1682291Because we're bastards.
>>1682291i think the BBC are only allowed a limited amount, the rest has to be self made.
>>1681990new zealand is lowest common denominator. it's all hakas and rugby adverts these days. >>1682099you do know that not even steve carrel thinks his version is better than the british original?
>>1682343Ricky Gervais > my shit > Steve Carell the man has 2 funny films, 40 year old virgin and anchorman all his others are shit.
>>16823610/10is only bad film is Dan In Real Life. The rest range from good to classic.
>>1682382evan almighty says your wrong, also all he ever does is play the straight man in roles written by other people. he has no talent.
>>1682361That's 2 more films than Ricky Gervais.
>>1682398>implying that's not a good movieU mad @ christian themes?Grow up faggot.I'm an atheist and I liked it.
>>1682400at least he writes his own shit.
>>1682382>Implying Carrel has nay creative input. Steve Carrel cant act either. It's just always Steve Carrel playing Stever Carrell.
This guy's a fucking machine, he does a good documentary.
Come visit Australia and you'll see what Americanism has done. People say "ass" and "pedophile".. and people have ever started saying "farther" rather than further. Seriously they need to kick the shit and put sense back into these cunting youthes. I'm just glad this country as racist as fuck or we'd be 51st state of Jesusland and over run with aznz
>>1682398acting != directingShow me a good actor that directs.I'll tell you you're wrong.>>1682343That's called modesty.
>>1682404I'm British I couldn't give a fuck about religion, I'm saying it was devoid of humour and not even a shadow of Bruce.
>>1682416eastwood
>>1682409Yeah, I think it's stupid that he's leaving The Office. He could never be any character other than Michael Scott because Michael Scott is Steve Carell and he can only play Steve Carell.
>>1682414...what's your alternative to pedophile?Ordinary bloke?
>>1682404Correction. You're American and you liked it.
>>1682404Who said anything about Christian themes. It was just a forced cash cow sequel and was unfunny. Bruce Almighty was funny however, because it didn't feel forced.
>>1682417>implying brits know anything about humorYou do realize that your people are known for being dry and humorless all across the world, right?
>>1682414I thought you were already overrun with Asians.
>>1682425Paedophile.. y'know how the Greeks said it.
>>1682427Actually I'm not American.I'm just honest.Show me a good British film that isn't a heist film and doesn't have Jason Stathom. I'll show you a shit film.
>>1682430The worlds best comedy begs to differ.
>>1682434>implying you would rather do things the ancient barbaric way than the new and improved wayThe greeks also fucked little boys for sport.
>>1682433Could be worse.
>>1682442Which would be?
>>1682430No, no they are not. have you been anywhere else in the world? And if were going to go for stereotypical bullshit, you do know you guys are seen by the rest of the world as loudmouth, obnoxious fatfucks right? Is that true in most cases? No, shut the fuck up.
>>1682442>Best Comedy>Not Monty Python or Ricky Gervaislolno America is the funniest nation
>>1682425>>1682425peter file
>>1682291In Canadian we have Canadian Content laws that make it mandatory for a certain percentage (30%?) of all content on a tv or radio station to be Canadian made.
>>1682437>I know nothing of cinema.Stop posting. Seriously, just stop. You're making us look bad.
>>1682448Is Australia actually racist? How hard is it to move there?
>>1682454HAHAHAHAHAHAFinally something American that did make me laugh.
>>1682465Are you white?
The USS Britannicunt after being sunk by the Secret Nazi Icebergenplatz project.
OH I DO BELIEVE I FANCY SOME SCONES!
>>1682454>>"My new computer came with Windows 7">Laughing track>>"Windows 7 is much more user friendly than Windows Vista">Audience cackles with laughter.>>"I don't like that">Audience is crying from laughter. Laughing and screaming can be heard left and right.
>>1682478Yes.
>>1682442Too bad the world disagrees with you.
>>1682494Then you should be OK.

Fucking red coats poising my TV with their stupid nonsense stoner comedy shit like the might boosh.
>>1682496is this the same world that plays in your world champion games of rounders?
>>1682499Ok, so which part has the least non-whites?
>>1682506Some of those (like harry pot head)may have been based on British books, but were made in Hollywood.
>>1682508That shit's shit man. Needs more father ted and red dwarf, also new comedians are ultra shitty hipster faggots.
>>1682506I'm adding Twin Town and Train Spotting to this.
>>1682481silly name for a boat, no surprised she sunk.
Oh blimey....
>>1682523Hairy pot head is made in the UK you tool, just with hollywood money.
>>1682519New South Wales, should do ya fine. Just stay away from Tasmania and inland Australia and remember if you're driving on a country road and you see what looks like a seemingly injured person lying in the road. Dont stop.
>>1682544Filming may have taken place there, but It's an American production. American directing, et cetera...It's fucking American.>implying British films have shit for special effectsLOLNO
>>1682545>200x158
>>16825610/10Notice how mine was actually true and yours wasn't.
>>1682523That wasn't you question though. Now you're just looking for reasons to escape because you know I'm right.
It's because we don't produce anything anymore, OP. The only TV shows we make are about how good other countries are (which people watch but never visit, instead going shitholes like Ibiza to get wasted and fuck shit up) and shows about how shit the UK is which all air on BB3 in the evening. Also half the country believes in ghosts and "Most Haunted" is on all the time on that Living channel. (More like Dead, amirite?)
>>1682055
>>1682571Britain gives me Doctor Who. Everything else is shit.
>>1682567>implying If you asked me to list good American films It wouldn't take me days.
>>1682571A better point has never been raised, i agree completely. I blame that shit for our fucking shitty chavvy culture, i think those ibiza shit programmes encourage that shit man. More culture tv, i'm seconding this shit dude.
>>1682588I had to write them down.
>>1682589I like Torchwood and The Misfits. Problem?
>>1682588but our aren't all about other cultures. God Father = Italy ect.
I don't really watch American Television shows, but I wouldn't complain about the other things, like movies and cartoons. Young boys love American superheroes and American movies are better than a lot of what we make over here.Also sage because I deleted my original post and I don't want to look like I'm ghost bumping.
>>1682574>implying 4chan isn't an American websiteReally? Are you that fucking stupid? There is no such thing as .USAthe united states has over 50% of the internet presence, .com = USAidiot.
>>1682620Batman is British, spider and superman are fags.
>>1682611Torchwood : Children of Earth was God-tier tv. As is the latest season of Doctor Who.
>>1682620
>>1682619We're so fucking awesome we have to make their movies for them.
>>1682611Naw it's the shit like britcops and anything that involves the name: X,Y and Z, or anything involving parenting, teenagers, drugs or physical and mental handicaps.
>>1682627.com is an international domene meant for commercial websites.
I don't live in the US, so I have a question for Americans:Are there a lot of foreign TV shows that play in the United States? Or, for that matter, are you like China or, as this thread states, Canada that limits the amount of foreign releases in the country every year?
>>1682650We don't have any limits on foreign shows. Sometimes we even have foreign shows just to make fun of how stupid they are (especially with some japanese shows). Most of our TV is American, because we have the largest television industry in the world, but if a decent foreign show comes along (and is in english) we will air it. Then there are foreign channels that only play shows in a certain language (spanish for example).
>>1682632you face when the first two episodes the worlds entire child population were shouting "We are coming"
>>1682692I wasn't thinking that. What are you 12 or a pedophile?
>>1682682Everything you've just said explains why Americants cannot into intelligence.
>>1682650There are essentially no foreign shows. Sometimes we have British shows, but most of the time, we just rip them off and make our own versions. There are Latino shows on this channel called Telemundo, but that's about it.
>>1682706the latter. I'm a nonce. And it's spelt paedophile, as it's Greek.
>>1682728>>1682682Thanks for the replies.What about music and movies?
>>1682759I'm done talking to you.
>>1682761Same goes. All foreign music and films get released here, but they won't become popular unless they are able to compete with the USA, since we also have the largest film and music industry in the world. I personally am A big foreign film buff, at least when it comes to action movies. Once again, some times really shitty movies will make there way here, just for the novelty of making fun of how bad they are.
>>1682632>Torchwood : Children of Earth was God-tier tv>Torchwood : Children of Earth was God-tier tv>Torchwood : Children of Earth was God-tier tv>Torchwood : Children of Earth was God-tier tv
>>1682728>doesn't have cable or satellite with channels in the 4000's that show lots of foreign shitOften times you won't even realize a show is foreign if it has a diverse cast.
>>1682810>Implying it wasn't.
Get that shit pussy dragon off my flag.
you're good. in my country, tv watches us.
>>1682650
I watch two shows religiously. House and the Simpsons
