The subtitle thing I can understand Allex's view. But without a doubt most of the best tv is in English. There are a few amazing films in foreign languages but for the most part they are English. So guys in the US don't really need to watch foreign stuff. Growing up in other countries things may be different. Although now most big films come in different languages. I personally find most Spanish, French and Italian tv rubbish and it's on a lot in my house. The same for Brazilian soaps and even Indian stuff... generally very cheesy and over the time. The quality of the programs is terrible for the most part. Most of the tops tv series are American and I am from the UK. I personally have no problems with subtitles and watch many things with them on.
