I’m interested in how UK and USA audiences might have reacted to Ted Lasso differently and I feel like the amount of fucks said might have led to a different amount of fucks given.

No, because they stuck with curse words that are familiar to US audiences (fuck) instead of actual British curse words. For instance, I don’t recall the use of the c-word which would have been on point.
Twat has seeped into my vernacular due to this show.
i could be mis-remembering but i think i saw an interview (with brett maybe?) where he said that appletv wouldn’t let em use the c word.
I believe it. It’s pretty jarring for many Americans.
Maybe but I know they use it more than a couple times in it’s always sunny
Yeah, cunt might be the only word that an American audience would have trouble with, which I think is why it was left out. It’s not typically used in a cheeky or fun way here.
Only place in the US that is fine with that word is Massachusetts right? Or am I just projecting a certain freckled comedian’s verbiage to an entire state lol
Closest we got was replacing the E in Kent with a U.
It took me a RIDICULOUS amount of time to get that joke.
This is the right answer. If they had the fans speak like real English fans the show would never get to air.
I don’t mind it in general but I didn’t like that >!they had the fan that Isaac attacked use f*****!<, when I feel like there are 5 or 6 other slurs that are more likely in the Uk. But then I’m not a football fan and I don’t hang out with homophobes so I might well be wrong!
