I'm sure it does somewhere, but Cali is all Latino and Asian....or at least 50% so.
Meant as in they have more USA developed TV programming. They never got Basil Brush, Worsel Gummage, The Wombles, Das Army, It ain't Half Hot Mum, Benny Hill and all that good stuff. Corro St to my knowledge has never played on AUS TV. In NZ all those programmes were the staple growing up.

Well yes, but you never got a lot of our TV either....I don't complain about it??
