General Discussion

Most British actors are better trained and have a greater range than the average American actor. I am often amazed at their talent. The stories can be more original and they absolutely own any period piece drama. That's not to say Americans don't have a lot of talented people, but the studios call the shots and they keep churning out the same old predictable garbage while typecasting popular actors.

Of course, now that I've watched a LOT of British television, I am aware that they have their share of junk TV too, but overall I find the programming considerably better than American TV.
