Last night on Keyhole I saw this feature where they blindfolded people to see if they could tell the difference between if there was air conditioning or not.
Now initially I thought it was boring,but then they made it fun to watch.

It might seem vapid,it might seem tacky to us in the western world but at least it's fun to watch. They don't import reality TV ever. The only international formats they adopt are things like Deal or no Deal.
My mother has actually told me that British television is the best in the world.
And she's the more sensible parent too. I suppose it's just what you like.

In British culture we have this thing about nastiness. Granted,the Japanese do like pain but if the X Factor were a Japanese format,it'd just be solid,no-nonsense,straight to the good stuff. There are good British programmes,like Doctor Who[although I've only really liked the pirate one this year],but we have a bit of that Australian thing. Not as bad. We think that America does TV better. We just barely make enough to make a cultural difference.
