I’m reminded of the possibly apocryphal story about 30 Rock being the worst-received comedy in German tv history.
- rospaya 4y agoBecause of the Liz Lemon German jokes?
- brazzy 4y agoNot apocryphal, here's a source for you: https://www.serienjunkies.de/news/rock-amerika-23820.html https://www.serienjunkies.de/news/rock-amerika-23820.html However, it suffered from extremely unfavorable conditions: it ran on a newly introduced digital channel that people would have to fiddle with their TV's settings to receive at all, and competed with some extremely popular series running at the same time.
- doctor_eval 4y agoYeah, well, I’m married to a German, and if there is anything I’ve learned, it is that Germans respond to jokes not by laughing, but by correcting you.
