Week 3
 Television show of BBC!!!!

The television show is really humorous as our late night shows, the shows are always intended to show funny clips and make jokes. The singer himself is try to show us how uncultured he is by giving us a gangster type of dress up wearing bandannas on his forehead and trying to sing in a different types of American accent according to people. The first time he says “America” he tries to show a higher level of people, second time he tries to show people from southern states. He also only uses the words “America” and “States” Which is mostly and highly used by people in Government agency’s such as The Navy, US Army.  But in a way he also sounds proud of his country and what they have done.

              Looking at the British view they might look American as an uncultured, un-socialized community. People always tend to judge people but here it shows how a country judges other country according to their culture or their accent.

  1. Sakar: I have had students who resented the way Americans are depicted in this skit. There appears to be somewhat of a debate as to whether this should be taken with a sense of humor or with an ounce of resentment. Richard Bobys
