Does the UK laught at Americans obsessed with Dr. Who and Harry Potter? - Kind of like the Japanese laugh at Americans obsessed with Anime?

[X Pac Heat]

Or are they just as gay about that shit across the pond?

 

[The Megalodon]

They are indeed just as gay across the pond. British people also take it as granted that people like what they make because they are self-important smug cunts

 

[Billy Beer]

Not in my experience. If anything, it makes more sense for yanks to enjoy that shit, than it does for modern day Brits. Dr Who is only watched by fags and women, Harry POtter is only enjoyed by kids, fags, women and pedos.

 

[Coelacanth]

The only people in the UK who enjoy Dr Who and Harry Potter are kids and millennial woman/soyboys. Everyone else kinda forgot they exist (particularly the latter - older people remember pre 9th Doctor have strong feelings about the show but are often sidelined).

 

[Coolio55]

Kinda? I mean, they're popular over here too amongst the same groups of creeps.
It's just fucking weird that some of the shittiest content is paraded around as extremely important pieces of cultural heritage and must be used as the face of the country.
Same with the actors, it's always the fakest most soulless husks that make it overseas.
Special "FUCK YOU" to the Beatles for forever branding themselves as the most important British band in history. They're certainly the biggest cunts in history and were big players in destroying society with their NWO produced music.
At least when people were quoting Monty Python they were quoting something worth a toss.

YOU LIKE BOWLER HATS, AUSTIN POWERS, AND PRINCE HARRY'S WIFE?!

COOL BRITANNIA

Meanwhile, your churches are racist, and everyone's been black since the time of the Celts.

Not in my experience. If anything, it makes more sense for yanks to enjoy that shit, than it does for modern day Brits. Dr Who is only watched by fags and women, Harry POtter is only enjoyed by kids, fags, women and pedos.

That's not fair! Pedos watch Dr Who, too.

Please tell me Ginger is still hot

 

[Friendly Mudcrab]

I thought everyone sane laughed about it. Tumblr/twitter type people spent years acting like Dr Who is the most niche, JUST FOR US QUIRKY NERDS thing on earth and not something everyone in whole UK saw or at least heard about before those shits were born.

 

[MrTroll]

Harry Potter is literally the last profitable British export, single-handedly propping up the entire economy. Without it the UK would be poorer than Haiti.

 

[LolRaccoon]

In Doctor Who's case, the UK made it and still views it as a children's show. Doctor Who isn't really seen that way here in the US.

 

[ToroidalBoat]

I tried watching Dr. Who a few times before...

Also the first episode(s) were kind of boring.

a children's show

"The Doctor" was always over-explaining stuff.

 

[Billy Beer]

Said while John Oliver and James Cordon are still alive.

Sorry about both.

Try to tell anyone in the US that any children's entertainment is mostly just for children.

 

[Milkis]

still views it as a children's show.

At the US-Canada border crossing near my hometown, there is a giant white arch reading (in reference to the US and Canada) "CHILDREN OF A COMMON MOTHER". My Latin teacher once encouraged us to think of other interpretations of that phrase.

 

[I'd abeeb bear]

The entire world watches mostly American television, admits it openly, then claim they don't whenever someone calls them on it.

Aged like fine wine. TBF, they all have.

Ruining the old joke of "what do you call 4 dogs and a blackbird? The Spice Girls"

This warms my loins heart.

 

[PaulBearer]

We laugh at Americans...not for those reasons, mainly cause they are fat.

 

[IAmNotAlpharius]

That segment of American society is very easily ashamed by Brits or Europeans. They hate being reminded that they are in fact Americans. Nothing warms my cold heart more than when a Britbong, Aussie, or larper reminds them that they will always be an Amerimutt.
