@implications24 Agree about the accents, however, as an expat, most Brits at home that try one is usually an American southern accent, or what they've heard on old John Wayne or western films. I do think Brit actors can pull off an American accent much more convincingly than the reverse.
@terryshilo Its because the American accent is generic. Its what you get when you have immigrants from France talking to immigrants from Greece. The intonations are easier to pronounce for people speaking English as a second language. So its much easier for Brits to speak like Americans than vice versa.
@jhop9898 Thanks for explaining this. It certainly makes a lot of sense. Since I've lived here for 2/3rds of my life. I wonder, with the multiculturalism that is Britain now, with the influx of Europeans, Asians, etc. Will the accents (varied obviously by location) morph as they have here. Or, because it's the "native" language be less affected.
@JozefBywalec18 It's actually on The Mitchell and Webb Situation, a TV show originally broadcasted several years ago on a now gone channel called Play UK. It's on the sixth episode of the first and only series, and if you watch it on YouTube it's towards the end of part two and the beginning of part three, if you want to watch the entire sketch.
Although I implore you to watch the whole series - it's very very raw and funny. <3
The first sketch reminds me of when my mum used to watch Murder, She Wrote. It ALWAYS ended the same, Fletcher would rattle of some hypothesis and guesswork that would never stand in court without any substantial evidence, then the murderer would just crack, admit everything detailing their whole plan, then pull out a gun then threatening to kill her, then the police walk in. ALWAYS.
The Event reminds me of that idiotic post-apocalyptic YA novel, 'Children of the Dust' - I imagine Simon and the mutant cousin going head to head! The mutant would win of course.
You can't compare Peep Show to that Mitchell and Webb Look. One is a sketch show, the other a dark sitcom. You can however compare on the fact that they are both absolutely hysterical, very witty, an just in general amazing. There, stop quibbling.
oh my friggen god! Is this a new season!!!? just starting to watch it now, i can tell it'll be awesome.. definatly different but still great. The english are the originals as far as comedy goes.
