Surely this isn't true in small to medium sized towns? Perhaps in cities but you could probably say the same thing of anywhere in the world? The coffee shop/local bar where everyone knows each others name is a staple in American shows, there must be at least a grain of truth in it.
- bradlys 3y agoThose shows are from 30+ years ago. TV isn’t always a semblance of real life. Do you think that everyone could relate to having a very nice home with a live in caretaker for your father, a very nice upscale and large apartment in an expensive metro, and constantly having people come to your home practically unannounced… No? Doesn’t sound like much of a real life situation for most Americans. Yet, Frasier was a huge show…
- rcarr 3y agoYes, but I would still be surprised if small towns in America don't have coffee shops, diners and bars where there are regular customers who are on first name basis with the staff. What the establishment sells might differ from location to location but the social aspect just seems to be a universal across the entire planet.
