    British TV has to tone it down because British people get offended and think that the characters are just cartoonish stereotypes. Their US portrayal is more accurate because they don’t have to tone it down.

    Edit: britoids offended because I told the truth.

      “embracing your Britishness abroad” is just a euphemism for feeling homesick to the point of delirium

      Yep, completely right we all talk like that all day and don’t notice. That’s why we notice it sounds weird when we see people speaking completely normally in US shows.

        It’s like hearing the sound of your own voice, or watching a movie in a higher frame rate than normal!
