This may be American TV, but I read that whole thing with an Australian accent

Now stretch it over twenty minutes, with constant repetition of the few known facts, ad “breaks” with a short reminded of what happened beforehand…

British character on British TV:

“you alright, man? My mum said you’d been feeling a bit down and could use a talk.”

British character on US TV:

“Cor blimey, guvnor! Me mam gave us a right old bollockin’ on that you’d bin down in the dumps and could use a jolly ole shot in the arm! Roger roger! Say no more!”

British TV has to tone it down because British people get offended and think that the characters are just cartoonish stereotypes. Their US portrayal is more accurate because they don’t have to tone it down.

The bottom one only plays on sunday afternoons one episode after the other precended by America’s Funniest Home Videos reruns on ABC Family or w/e the channel name is now.

I haven’t watched proper TV in 20 years so I honestly don’t know whether this is actually happening in peoples’ homes. The discovery merger lends too much credence to the possibility. Which reality show completed the enshitification of an already extremely enshitified service? Was it duck dynasty that set the trajectory for [current year]?

Non primetime television has probably been garbage for longer than it wasn’t. Only difference is that some of the shows they play nonstop were considered good or at least good for background fodder. My mom, for instance, needs something like cable to have on in the background for noise because a streaming service or my hard drive full of shows and movies gives her choice paralysis but putting on reruns of Castle yet again is easy.

They captured it perfectly
