No, except, like I said, Netflix. The cinemas (sorry, but I still expect to see actors and the curtain in a theatre) suffer from the same shortsightedness, only slightly less.

>Back to your point, why is it so surprising that the TV channels in a predominantly English speaking country predominantly air programs in English?

It was definitely not the point, but I'll recap: there are probably about twenty countries where English is either the only or one of official languages; all of them have televisions (though, you'd never know, would you?). None of that is shown here, EXCEPT UK. Clear? That was my question, why only UK?

And, BTW, most of the world watches a lot of footage made in a foreign language. Are they smarter, suffering, uninformed, delusional, misguided, what?

>Was it different back in the paradise that was Yugoslavia, shows in every language of the world on the television?

Not that rich. Just about twenty languages that I can remember.
