articleI was just wondering if Kiss, Chloe, and Court (plus any other American's that may be members here) felt about this. Did you find it hard to get into? I know that Kiss and Court only saw four episodes of Series 2, but how did you feel about the program. Was it at all get confused, or not understand anything?

I don't think I was confused. Well, yeah watching season two I know I missed stuff, but that was the only confusing bit for me. Other than that I loved it, def a show I would watch all th time!!

I remember you, or Kiss and Holly mainly being surprised at how much we got away with, like the swearing and such forth. I couldn't believe that. We Brit's must be spoilt

You are! And the breakneck pacing? Oh dear... Me Amer-ican. Me too slow keep up with funnies. Personally, I expected trouble with the accents, but was pleasantly surprised. I didn't have trouble figuring out what they were saying. I think whoever wrote that article underestimates Americans as a whole. Or I'm a lot smarter than the average.

To be honest, it's not much different from us listening to your different accents, then with ours.. If any where going to be difficult to understand I think it would have been Sue's.. with her scottish accent. Maybe the "Slang" May have been harder to understand.. I wonder if that was what he/she was trying to say. And Kiss, you are smarter then the average

The slang is difficult if you don't have a bit of knowledge or a translator, but I have this uncanny ability to figure out the meaning of a word by context. I suppose there are people who don't want to put in even that level of effort/thought into their tv viewing, but I want my shows to be more than a veg-fest. Give me something entertaining, yes, but I want to have something to think about.

Well, I was a little surprised by the cursing. But I figured you all were a little more liberal when it came to what can and cannot be said/done on TV. I wish we could here as I know there I times when people on my Law and Order programs want to drop the f-bomb.
But I really like the program and wish I had BBC America (or cable for that matter at my house) And Kiss you and Hells are indeed genius!

Hopefully they will get their arses in gear, and get in on DVD over there. Unless of course you have multi-region dvd players as then you can order it from here.

Yeah I don't have one of those...at least I don't think I do. That and my DVD player probably wouldn't let me play anything besides Law and Order: SVU or HP movies. But I'm sure I could get it to make an exception for Green Wing! That is if they'll turn it over to BBC America to sell. I keep checking to see....yet nothing yet.

You bet I'd let you and Kiss know as soon as I did! She'd probably harm me if I didn't.
