Question to quys from USA. Do TV serials show ypur life accurate? I mean, such shows as Californication, Rectify or True Detective.

>quys
lol, *guys

hi

Hey!

bump

Hello

Not really

None of them? There are no titles that are accurate?

House of Cards? Life of one Bush or Kennedy.

8 mile? Normal life of middle class? Not a serials thou

Damn, this Wakaba is so unfamiliar

house of cards is, according to bill clinton it is very accurate, high praise id say

So if I come to the US expecting to see the world from TV serials, I win't be fully dissapointed?

I know what you're thinking and no, they usualyl show how the top 20-30% live, that is the typical "average joe" family in hollywood movies/shows. I'm talking your American Pie, Superbad, Californication etc

Rather than basing their tv shows on their lives Americans base their lives on the tv shows they've watched in their childhood. Right now they're in the friends period except they can't afford rent.

Of, Friends. That's interesting.
I also googles cigarettes price in US and cigs are really expensive, poor Americans

what? it's a few times cheaper than europe

Yes. I have fugged one hundred qts.

>I also googles cigarettes price in US and cigs are really expensive, poor Americans
>tfw $12 a pack

Californication is just rich people in silly situations.
True Detective is based of true events in lake ponchatrain, Louisiana.
Haven't seen rectify.
Shameless is pretty accurate.

1-2$ in Russia

$5-6 a pack in Texas.

>I know what you're thinking and no, they usualyl show how the top 20-30% live, that is the typical "average joe" family in hollywood movies/shows.
Pretty much this.

off topic, but all movies/shows are shit because its scripted and doesn't show how people really talk and interact with each other

Yes, but I'm interested mostly in the world, not just communication, lifestyle of characters, that sort of things.

>all movies/shows are shit because its scripted and doesn't show how people really talk and interact with each other
>had isolated childhood
>only social interaction I saw was between my weirdo parents who hated each other
>finally had to interact with others only had examples from tv and movies to go off of
>tfw I became the weirdo
t-thanks mom and dad

tv shows are always about the upper crust of the society, it's for places like maryland and richer parts of la etc

most of america are a few ranks below that

literally The Cable Guy

Watch Shameless as said, although even that is unrealistic in some ways

Thanks, it's obvious in some cases like Californication, or cartoon parody BoJack Horseman, but all of them? Okay

Portlandia is accurate

>Are TV shows true to life?
Oh wow.

yes all of them
tv shows shows what people want to be, not how it really is

yes. life in the south is just like true detective season 1
life in new york is just like 30 rock
life in the upper plains is just like fargo
life in california is just like californication
life in the pacific northwest is just like twin peaks

desu community was like a heavily exaggerated version of my experience with community college

Watch The Wire, this is the most accurate and realistic portrayal of American life

No
