      We had a show where a group of comedians/actors would sit around a coffee table in the middle of a set surrounded by an audience. They would joke and exchange stories for an hour. Every episode had different people on the roster. I forget what its called though and it was locked in cable package hell so not many people saw it I wager.

    My wife (we’re American, BTW) got upset with me when I didn’t give as big a sh*t as she thought I should have about the previous royal wedding, pregnancy, and birth. I told her good for them and much happiness, but it wasn’t something that really affected my life or hers. I told her it was unfortunate that everyone expected them to produce an heir immediately after tying the knot. Like the Royal Family needs to exist indefinitely or civilization will crumble. I compared our US version of royalty (which is merely wealth and/or celebrity) and asked would she be broken-hearted if Paris Hilton or someone in her lifestyle circle turned out to be sterile. Would she care? I told her it’s all about the money and having offspring to pass it on to. The biggest fear of the wealthy is not only losing their money, but losing it to someone they consider “unworthy.”
    My wife said there was no talking to me sometimes.

    • @razmataz13drums
      @razmataz13drums 7 ปีที่แล้ว +23

      i think he was going to say that programmes like the Crown foster good will to the monarchy because it allows you to view the royal family as that, a family, rather than an archaic institution. it is of course both, so those things are a weird thing. On one side, the queen, Will and harry have the roles of ambassadors which personally I view them to be doing a good job at. On the other, the monarchy represents an outdated system that allows one family to be filthy rich with tax paying money. BUT they dont exactly choose that life, and they do lots to generate money, interest and good will. Losing the monarchy would be like gaining a tail- it would be weird and arbitrary, but we'd get used to it

    • @TheTardisDreamer
      @TheTardisDreamer 7 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Funnily enough, though The Crown humanises the Royal family, the showrunner isn't for the monarchy. He recently called the Queen a woman of limited intelligence and was pretty brutal about it too. I was a little shocked, given how the show does a pretty good job showing them in a fair light.

      @@razmataz13drums Democracy is as old as Monarchy, if not even more. And within the fact that a constitutional monarchy is very efficient as an institution the most advanced argument for keeping is about traditions and culture.
      It works brilliantly because it act as a balance, the power is shared between the elected government and the Crown, both of them keeping each other in check thus no abuse can be made.
      Interesting and controversial isn't ? To need a non democratic system to avoid abuses of the same said system.

      And Please don't get defensive, like I said, It wasn't to offend you, I just wanted to understand where the confusion was, for example I understand why people confuse 'They're' 'Their' and 'There' and that's fine but I just didn't quite understand the whole 'could of' 'would of' 'should of' thing, and I thought you might be the perfect person to help me understand, since you seem to use them.

    Thank-you John Oliver! Although it's more like if Seth Myers had a tail paid for by the British tax payer, and the tail owned several palaces and castles with 1000's of acres of land that could be used for something better than housing a useless tail. Although many people said the tail was worth it because it brought in tourist money, they just hadn't thought it through properly.

    • @quarkwrok
      @quarkwrok 7 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Which you haven't. As much as I don't care about the monarchy, I have to point out your analogy omits the income to the taxpayers from said castles, palaces, land etc., that the costs to the taxpayer includes costs of maintenance of those assets that would still be needed if the monarchy no longer existed or the ownership was in state hands, and the fact that the land is owned personally by the royal family has nothing to do with restrictions in planning. Exactly what would you expect the land to be developed as anyway?

    • @MrMigeco
      @MrMigeco 7 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      The land could be developed or used in any way we deemed fit. Are you suggesting it's useless land that could not be used? And yes those castles and palaces would still need to be paid for, this could be done in tourist money, much like Versailles.

    • @quarkwrok
      @quarkwrok 7 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      In the UK there is immense pressure on land for development of all kinds. Land is designated by type no matter who owns it, i.e. brownfield, National Park, Scenic Beauty, Special Scientific Interest, Green Belt etc. Land that can developed economically has been. Housing, mining, roads etc. You can pretty much bet the land owned by Queenie and her peeps has been developed to the full already. Meanwhile, some of us are trying to protect the environment, not pave it over. its an overcrowded heavily urbanised industrial island, not some chocolate box christmas card of pretty cottages and country lanes. Maybe we should get rid of the monarchy just to get rid of outdated inaccurate stereotypes about Merry Old! The royals only own a small amount of it anyway.
      The tourist money for the palaces goes to the state already. Would be interesting to see what the costs of the royal family would be minus the maintenance costs. A few £million? Wouldn't take much of a drop in tourists to wipe that out. And if we're turning the figureheads into normal citizens, should we let them have the land and castles back - and allow the income - or make an example of them. Or maybe just take the assets or any [possible income off anyone we don't like or anyone too rich. Sounds fair but is it right?

      They earn a lot more money for the country through tourism alone than the state actually spends for them.

    • @PkMnNeWb
      @PkMnNeWb 7 ปีที่แล้ว +25

      Not only tourism, the royals also turn over the profit from their privately owned land to the parliament every year in return for parliament covering the royal expenses (which is a lot less than what the parliament receives from these privately owned lands). Excluding the tourism benefit it would still be cheaper to keep the monarchy than it is to abolish it.

    • @DaDunge
      @DaDunge 7 ปีที่แล้ว +10

      It's cheaper to have monarchy anyway because you don't have to host a meaningless election every so often, only to get a head of state that half the country hates.

    I can only speak for myself, but I grew-up watching all the Disney princess films and this is a "real life" Princess and she's hypothetically going to get her "fairy tale" ending with her Prince... it's kind of weird and all about fantasy, but that's my guess as to why some Americans are fascinated by it. I personally wish them the best, but find all the hype a little exhausting.
