Yeah, those evil muppets were just so wrong. I bet when they did that show, they (the writer, director, puppeteers) kept daring each other to go just a little farther, until they went to that bad place...and the idiot censors of course had no clue...

Okay, good. Then here goes:
Italian demon: "Oh, look: the Americans are using violence to solve their problems."
Yeah--one of 'em is English, the other is Irish. Sure, they're real American. To me, this has always reeked of the writers taking a political shot...

Quote:You know, I took that very differently. It was funny to me because it's like they were saying only Americans resort to violence...even Demons believe the hype generated by the media (LOL), like we have the franchise on violence. Maybe it was a political shot, but I saw it as a goof on our glut of action movies, the sensationalism of violence on our news, and the erronious world label we might have because of it.

As a reference to our government's use of military might...I dunno, I think there's no real reason for it in that context...

Well, they are representing an American firm (or at least a US-based branch)...

Angel has been in the USA since 1902... he more than qualifies for the residency requirement. The American government usually doesn't give citizenship to surnameless undead, but I'd say he's quite American by now.

Oops. Sorry.
No worries. I ended up ordering the dvds from ww.cdwow.com for £17 - the cheapest I've ever seen them :)

Maybe they were trying to buy the right to do an episode filled with outrageous Italian stereotypes...
