Oh, America... why do you patronise us so? For this list, WatchMojo UK counts down the most prominent British stereotypes constantly portrayed on American television. Either we're fight-y, bite-y, swear-y football hooligans... Or we're prim and proper posh people with mansions on every corner... Or we're emotionally stunted, socially awkward Londoners... apparently!

Many years ago, British actors appearing on US TV always sounded very strange. They spoke with a high pitched Australian accent, even when it was an actor we were familiar with. All became clear when an actor was interviewed on TV. He explained that on arriving in the states, he was sent for lessons to an American voice coach, who taught him to speak with the “correct” English accent.

@@miakid4159 yep, that is the case with most British actors and I'm assuming its the same for other nationaities. They have to tailor their accents and way of speaking to be understood in America, or to give off a stereotypical type of voice and image, but its like the speaking coaches have no idea about anything other than those non-existent types. I love it when im visiting Newcastle (in England-geordie accent) to see family, and you hear American tourists talking to the locals, and looking dumbfounded, asking them if they speak English! Same happens where my sister lives in Wales, even though everybody speaks English, just with a welsh accent, again its mainly Americans that struggle with it, assuming they are speaking welsh, but infact are speaking English. I can only assume it happens in Scotland and Ireland etc. Its because Americans, as a whole, are not realoy exposed to real British accents and dialects, and they only get to hear the fake British accents you see portrayed in thise American movies and tv shows. I think it has improved a bit, since America started consuming a lot of British homegrown tv, such as Top Gear etc, and with the advent of the internet, giving global communication between all people, everyone interacting more and being exposed to each others real accents. In some instances picking up local words,slang, phrases and even slight accent changes through these interactions with friends from across the globe. The tv/movie dialect coaches who teach these outdated stereotype accents need to get with the times and realise people are familiarising themselves with other countries and other world regions and their accents, so if you are from, lets say Birmingham in the Midlands of England, it is perfectly fine for you to play a character with the same accent, and not have to resort to doing a 'hoity-toity upper class, posh' fake accent that very few -if any- people actually have anymore. Accents evolve all the time. Hollywood needs to take that fact on board. Also, they really need to stop portraying the British as the bad guy all the time, all because of a war from a few cenyturies ago. They need to take in to account that over the last 100+ years, Britain and America have been allies, standing toe to toe as brothers in almost every war that has taken place in those years and have had each others backs, and have not been enemies in those times. Yet almost every action and adventure movie from Hollywood, the bad guy is either a brit or an actor portraying a brit. Its not that the American general public as a whoke isnt capable of understanding or even picking up a different regional accent from somewhere else, because of course they are, and they do. All my american friends understand my hubbys very strong regional accent (which wven i struggled with when i first met him!) It may take but of getting used to, but once over that initial hump they understood him fine. But hollywood needs to give the general American public more credit than they do and underand the world isnt what it was 50 years ago. They should feature more real British acxents in movies and tv. Infact they should use more real American accents too. I have noticed that they tend to use a generic general american accent for most characters, even if the show/movie is set somewhere that has a very much defined pronounced regional acxent that is specific to that certain region. What hollywood does is pick out one or two tiny aspects of that local acdent, and just gets the actors to add those small parts to their vocal range, but really they should learn the whole of that accent, and perform the character with it. Wake up Hollywood, its almost 2020. Let people use the accents they are born with at least sometimes. Obviously they are actors and have range. Just dont give them a generic voice all the time. Its getting a bit tiresome now.

That’s their “thing” so using anything from that series as some sort of proof of how Yanks actually view those from the U.K. is ridiculous. Besides, I watch a ton of British tv (ala BritBox) and most of these stereotypes are coming FROM your own broadcasts. Downton Abbey, Sherlock, Midsomer Murders, etc.

i'm yankee but i lived in the uk for 2 1/2 years and let me just go on record as saying the english have absolutely no right to cop an attitude when it comes to americans poking fun at them or when they're exposed to negative stereotypes that americans may have about them. the english never hesitate for a second to bag on americans right to our faces and, in fact, it seems like if it bothers you then so much the better. especially the english are totally obsessed with americans and their weight they cannot seem to say two words about americans without saying something about americans being fat (ignoring the fact their weight problem is damn near as bad) and all too often seem to think the whole country is mississippi and that we're all obese born again christians packing heat. put another way they watch JEREMY KYLE and think "that's a tiny minority barely worth mentioning" but then watch MAURY POVICH (which is giant over there) and think "yep that's the norm". this is not everybody by any means (many people all throughout the british isles seem to revere americana) but definitely enough for it to be noticeable.

The number of pubs in the UK is half what it was in the 20th century. Pubs are rapidly going out of fashion & no longer needed now that we have the Internet, mobile phones & can buy alcohol far cheaper in supermarkets.

I love Buzz Killington. Trying to think of a US film or show that gets Britain. A terrible offender is NCIS, as is Frasier. Nope, still can’t think of a show. However Chris Pratt does do an amazing Essex (the county for US readers) accent/ impression. Probably the best US impression of a Brit. Mike Myers is pretty good but he is Canadian with English parents. Except when he shouts, and reverts to his natural voice. I cringe when I hear Andrew Lincoln and Hugh Laurie. Surely they sound terrible to Americans? They do to me.

The teeth thing bugs me. Americans think we have bad teeth but the reality is that we have our own teeth, natural teeth, not dentures or veneers or even absurdly white (chemical enhancement) they're actual human teeth and as such aren't perfectly straight. If my teeth all fell out, I'd ask for the dentures to look as close to my natural teeth as possible. Those perfectly straight, shiny, white teeth just look weird.

Fun fact: the UK is 4th place for good dental hygiene, while the US is 9th place, how hilarious, even the American dental association said that the average american only visits the dentist at most once every 2 years, outside of the Hollywood celebrity fake plastic smile, the average American has discoloured or crooked teeth lol

Having grown up watching lots of American TV, I've always hated their small-minded ignorant portrayal of British people. We're either all posh upper-class relatives of the royal family or working class cockney pub-goers. There's no ethnic diversity, no modern nuances in how Brits are portrayed by Americans and it's incredibly lame and tiresome at this point. I'm all for making fun of stereotypes but not when you actually believe the stereotype is a reflection of real life.

The UK is just London surrounded by fields, yep thats how America sees us, seeing how all film studios are London based. 3 Mills Studios Ealing Elstree Longcross Wimbledon Pinewood Shepperton Leavesden This is why Northern England Scotland Wales South West South Midlands and Northern Ireland are constantly missed out and left out. Even got mentioned on a news channel about why keep building film studios in London? Why not in the Northern Power House which the current government are asking industries to look at and bring jobs locally. The response was "Well we did look everywhere but London was just ideal."
