Default Foreign TV

Any Foreign Language TV shows your like?

And the bonus question. Do you prefer Subs (Subtitles translating the voices) or Dubs (Newly recorded voices in another language)?

For me, apart from anime (Which you all must've already figured out that I like Anime), I liked this Austrian TV series called "Inspector Rex", it seemed to be pretty unique IMO, having a police dog as the main character in a detective series. It also had some interesting stories.

I prefer subs, since it doesn't change anything, and still makes it easier to understand whats going on. Dubs can be good, though It's usually voiced by people who either don't put enough emotion into the voice, or put too much emotion into the voice, AND it's just horrible when they decide to dub songs.

Not really, it's hilarious watching Neighbours on the German channels with the dubbed over voices though. German and Australian way of speaking are about as far apart as you can get!

Yeah, dubs can be pretty funny. Especially since most of the time, the voices don't suit the characters at all.

The extent of my Foreign tv is generally American stuff (so no need for subs)

The only anime series i've watched all the way through is 'Noir'

I prefer subs even in games as I hate bad dubbing and plus its weird if they speak English in say Germany.

Dubs are funny, but I can't stand watching serious movies in them.

And I hate people especially who won't watch subtitles. illiterate cunt-wits.
