The Royals (2015–2018)
5/10
Actually quite funny but let down by English actors speaking American
15 April 2015
I'm finding this quite amusing as a deliberately trashy spoof.

The actors play their characters well but are let down by screen writing giving them phrases they would never use. E.g. Queen: "Where were you raised" (brought up) Guy on motorbike: "Do you need a ride" (lift)

.... as well as a multitude of basic mistakes using lines we never use here.

It seems unlikely that the large cast of English actors didn't point these out but I suppose they were ignored.

It will be interesting to see if the characters start "reaching out" to each other, saying "like" every few words or go the whole hog and turn into Bill and Ted. Awesome Dudes!
