I probably wont remember everything but I think this is close enough.

1. Star Trek: TNG
2. Mythbusters
3. Jackass
4. Dragonball (also Z & GT)
5. Wind And Cloud (A taiwanese kungfu-fantasy-action series, absolutely amazing, look it up.)

Crude list:

1. Star Trek TOS
2. The Kids in the Hall
3. MacGyver
4. The Twilight Zone
5. He-Man

I liked South Park for a while, but apparently, the makers have a raging hate-on for Canadians. Jeeze, South Park, sorry for whatever it was I did, being born North of an imaginary line drawn in the mud and all. Next time, I'll try to be born elsewhere, I guess? Will that make you cool so we can be friends, South Park?

Aww stillman, they love Canadians! Everybody loves Canadians, with their floppy trashcan heads and beady little eyes!

Seriously though, they don't hate Canadians, they just rip on everybody differently. Heck, Kyle's brother Ike is Canadian, and Ike is totally awesome!!

Canadians are enshrined as Holy People.
too nice to be real, whats the problem - look at the Mexicans and US Regions portrayals on the show.

I admit some differentiation of regional types is still needed.

Well, the reasons for bashing those countries are either well known or presented, whereas Canadians are always retarded in the show for no apparent reason. They did a whole episode venting hate by conquering Canada and slaughtering the population. But why? In terms of culture, we're much the same as Americans, maybe even fatter. Confusing.

How do you get 50 Loud, Violent and Drunken Canadians playing underwater hockey out of the pool at a party?

Spoiler

Just saying.

I'm your buddy Friend.
Look at other American Stereotypes, you got off easy considering you are the only colony left,
and why is that?
Are you too polite to not join any club that will have you?

I'm more like Groucho Marx.
"I don't care to belong to any club that will have me as a member"

The United States are still Individual States and regions. We get flavor that way.

You must be talking about the old South Park movie! Blame Canada! Blame Canada! In that movie, the flip side is that Americans are idiotic, uptight, warmongering, busy-bodies that will blame anyone but themselves for everything. That's not exactly flattering either. (Team America: World Police is another rather unflattering imagining of the USA.) I think the reason they gave Canada such a... colorful... imagining is precisely BECAUSE Canadians are so similar to Americans, they had to just be absurd to strike any kind contrast, and because it's so unexpected. It's similar in strategy to making a super cuddly cat an evil arch-villian, it's so absurd it's hilarious!

Gossip girl. that's the one where they talk really fast. Can't remember anything else about it.

**Stevinator** · 20-07-2012, 20:56

hmm, doesn't sound like my thing. I saw some walking dead at a friend's place and that looked really good. I just can't handle the talking fast thing. I watch TV when i specifically don't want to think much.

On the other end though, someone said DragonBall and that moves too slow. I swear one time there was an episode where all they did was charge up. can you imagine when the show was new, and that was all you got for the whole week? That show would've been really good if it had moved faster.

**Technomancer** · 21-07-2012, 08:34

Talk about a slow moving show, did anyone catch any of that HBO series Carnivale? I thought the show was cool and all, but story moved SO SLOW!!! OMG!!

And the 11th Commandment is written in our flesh: Thou Shalt Be Strong!! [/demon's sermon]
