Does anybody on here actually find Friends funny? Most of them should have been put down at birth. Perhaps the French like it. |

Re: Do Americans lack humor
To be fair, there's some cr*p TV comedy on over here too. We've also started to move beyond take-the-p*ss-out-of-the-Germans mode at long last. At one time, the latter was about 70% of TV comedy over here. The Germans may not have a sense of humour, but they sure do take it pretty well from we Brits.
Don't mention the War! I mentioned it once but I think i got away with it... Two world wars and one world cup.... |

You might be thinking of John Wells, hes the one who sadly died a few years ago. (He was best known in his latter years for spoofing Dennis Thatcher.) |
Re: Do Americans lack humor
Ah yes! Anyone for Dennis. Another classic. Along with Mike Yarwood's impression of Ted Heath (I was very young for that one. Honest!)
Rory Bremner has got Blair down to a 't'. Haven't seen anyone do Cherie yet, but I guess all you would have to do is walk into the nearest supermarket and start loading freebies into a very large bag whilst at the same gurning and going cross eyed... Bin Laden would be another easy target for a take off by Bremner. Can't imagine him ever doing it though. Salman Rushdie II here we come... |

"Oh not much you have to care for - simply imagine me with a potato in the mouth while speaking, that's american" I cannot figure out at the time, but after meeting many americans and british people in my life and watching some UK/USA films with the original soundtrack, I can say the statement fits pretty well to my perception... :p I always panic when I have to phone an american for job-related stuff :D |
