American humour is overrated, apart from The Simpsons (which is slowly dying) and Futurama and Family Guy (oh look, all animated) I hate everything else.
Friends was once funny but they are flogging a dead horse. Seinfeld was a bore fest and SNL has Celebrity Jeopardy and... uh...
British comedy is funny, therefore it wins be default.
I rarely watch TV now anyway, the only decent American shows now are SG-1 and CSI and the only decent British shows are Alan Partridge and The Bill.

It's even funny when they are buying all the new shows off us now, Millionaire, Wekaest Link, Pop Idol, Fame Academy...Archaic` wrote:Which they stole off the Brits, who had the show hosted by Clive Anderson.

Seriously, can't you Americians have any variety in your games? They were the same ones over and over. Same goes for the people you had on your show for that matter.
Generally TV is crap now and I don't really miss it.
Oh yeah, Spooks and 24 were great too.

Ive never been to Europe so I dont see any TV from there that is not imported to the US cable channels.
I have to say that DW News is a pretty good program. The quality of the news is better than in the US and the production values are as high as news here in CA. ( for some reason news in the rest of the US seems kinda cheesy to me )
I saw the SCI-Fi channel in Canada before it was available in the US so that was good for them.
British comedies are funny but since they are imported I dont know much about the rest of their stuff.
