TV in the US and the UK is so different! But what exactly makes British TV so British, and what makes American TV so American? Let's dive in and chat specifics!
Jay Foreman: / jayforeman51
Thank you so much for watching! Hope you enjoyed it!
If you're new to my channel and videos, hi! I'm Evan Edinger, and I make weekly "comedy" videos every Sunday evening. As an American living in London I love noticing the funny differences between the cultures and one of my most popular video series is my British VS American one. I'm also known for making terrible puns so sorry in advance. Hope to see you around, and I'll see you next Sunday! :)

I’ve noticed this whilst watching sports on tv. I watch a lot of sport and am from the UK so the norm in the sport I watch where the presenters will look and talk to each other when discussing whatever game they are analysing. However watching the NHL on US TV is that the pundits will talk and look at the camera when discussing the game

I don't think it's been mentioned, but when US cartoons were shown in the UK on channels like boomerang and cartoon network, they stuck to UK ad breaks and that meant there were parts where an ad break was obviously meant to go like a cliffhanger moment which would go to black and then the scene would continue slightly after without an ad break. I remember it most on Scooby Doo.

You should see drug ads in US magazines. I work for a heath magazine and since it's required by law to include all the side effects and everything, drug ads are typically 2-4 pages! And the drug company has to pay for those extra pages, they don't get a flat rate like your actual ad is one page but since you have to have 3 pages of fine print we'll just throw that in. Nope gotta pay for your pages of fine print which easily will be five figures. Says a lot about drug companies in the US...

I reckon A Question of Sport was one of the first panel shows. It had sportsmen and comedians together. It was good to find some sportsmen with a real funny sense of humour. Emlyn Hughes, Ian Botham, Bill Beaumont, Brendan Foster, Willie Carson, Ally McCoist, Phil Tufnell and Matt Dawson were the long term team captains.

Very surprised that Whose Line is it Anyway didn't come up. Started as a UK radio show, moved to a UK TV show, was adapted for US and became far more successful than it ever was in the UK. One of the only shows to acknowledge the absurdity of the points system, and created a whole range of formats that have been poached by other shows. Also it's one of the funniest shows ever made (with the possible expection of the new series)

It's the original panel show. Beginning in 1972 on the radio (predating the News Quiz by five years) - even television panel show contestants have appeared on it in recent series (especially as hosts since the passing of Humph, and done on a rotation basis in the style of HIGNFY after Angus Deaton left until Jack Dee took the chair permanently).
