How many of your favourite TV shows are American?

28 comments

1. All of them?

2. Most. Though a few of my favorites are Japanese anime or British comedies.

3. All of them.

4. Most, but so many high quality shows are made in the US wether the talent is American or not. Recently, Squid Game and La Casa de Papel are my favorite foreign shows.

5. I barely watch any TV at all but when i do it’s American shows…mostly old Anthony Bourdain reruns or Its Always Sunny

6. 84%

7. All of them. Dr who used to be a favorite but went to shit

8. Probably 75% I’ve found I really like Australian and British shows a LOT. The comedies especially.

9. The vast majority

10. 80%

11. Most.

12. Basically all of them.

    I have watched a few foreign shows but none of them are favorites.

    The vast, vast majority of Americans couldn’t even name a show from another country other than, maybe, the British bake off show.

13. 80% not counting joint US/Canada produced shows

14. All of them.

15. Current/recent favorites? None. They’re all anime or programs on NHK-World.

    But in the interests of full disclosure, I haven’t regularly watched American TV (outside of the odd baseball game or reruns from the L&O universe) in over twenty years.

16. All of them. The only non American show i have ever watched was squid game.

17. Like, 8/10 of them

18. The majority

19. All of them. I don’t think I even get foreign TV channels much less foreign shows.

20. Nearly all of them, aside from Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood and The Ricky Gervais Show.

21. King of the Hill is American

    Ed, Edd and Eddy is Canadian

    Its Always Sunny is American

    GoT is weird cuz its produced by Americans, stars mostly Brits and mostly filmed across Europe. Its international tbh

    My favourite film tho is British. Directed by a Brit, starring an American but with British and American co-stars and filmed in London and set in outer space

22. The overwhelming majority are. The one non-American show I can think of that I’m looking forward to soon is the third season of Lupin (French) on Netflix. When I do watch foreign stuff, it’s mostly foreign movies, not TV shows. I just don’t have time to watch all the good American shows that are currently out there, let alone the foreign ones.

23. Most of them. I’ll watch a little bit of British stuff, and Canadian stuff can slip in without being noticed sometimes, but the vast majority of it is made in the US.

24. 99 percent

25. A lot of them are, but some are not.

    I do watch Anime, but I also enjoy a good american TV Show, like Spongebob or Breaking Bad.

26. Maybe 80% or so. I enjoy a lot of British shows like Doc Martin, That Mitchell and Webb Look, Little Britain, Downtown Abbey, Black Mirror, Hijack, etc.

27. All of them except Doctor Who.

    I do enjoy a lot of shows from other countries (my sister and I watch a lot of Japanese and Korean shows to talk about together, and I really like Trailer Park Boys, Top of the Lake, probably a few others that aren’t coming to mind right now), but I wouldn’t really count them among my favorites. And honestly, I think Doctor Who only gets there because there’s a major nostalgia factor going on for me–I grew up watching it on Sundays with my dad when it aired on our local PBS channel.

28. None. All my stuff is Japanese
