hey what makes our tv better is our writers and our money

[LatumWay]

@nifrued In some areas this is absolutely true. However in many cases plot and overall quality lose out to money.

@durro9xl Not true! Shameless is just one many American shows that get their ideas from British shows.

As a Brit I love British Comedy, the stuff thats worth talking about, there is obviously as much guff british comedy as there is american, but america can produce a good drama. The Wire, The Shield, Dexter, Oz, Deadwood, Sons of Anarchy, The Sopranos, The Pacific, Band of Brothers to name a few. I know most of those are cable shows though and don't fall under ruling from the FCC, Cartoons are great aswell, loving Archer and Bob's Burgers at the moment.

@nifrued

i don't see how american culture has influenced British TV, seeing how a lot of your most famous shows are remakes from other countries.

[nifrued]

i hate the american office im a fan of the uk's :) britsh tv like the rest of world has just been influenced heavily by american culture and media but thats a different subject now isn't it
