In speaking with the tone of the movie.. This show is TOP-NOTCH!
I am of the younger generation so I can resonate with the sarcasm quite well. Of course all the American stereo types, and the behaviour of poppy and Georgie blends beautifully with the preconceptions the Americans have of rich, arrogant/bewildering Brits!
We don't all drink tea 24/7 !! haha
Anyway, there is nothing more to say, except that this show is pure Gold. Sarcastic genius!
The level of satire brought by two seemingly clueless teenagers, trumps that of big funded shows like the office etc. and its success is in it's simplicity!

Without a doubt, if you understand and enjoy British humour, you cannot miss this show. The two characters are beyond priceless in their delivery of the writing.
I was surprised that Ricky Gervais wasn't involved in this production as his wacky sense of humour and sarcasm are very familiar in Almost Royals.
The writers must be congratulated on their superb writing skills; quite obviously there is not always the need for violence or sexual content to create an entertaining television production.
Thank you thank you BBC Canada for bringing this brilliant piece of work to us! Such fun.
Loving it and laughing more each episode!!
Yay....another season has just commenced in Canada 😂

It slightly reminds of Borat,but on another level and without the gross. Just pure humor and I already watched it 3 times as I laugh every time. If you can laugh at yourself you will LOVE THIS.

This is hilarious. Wish there are more shows like this. Almost royal but absolutely funny and insane.
Some scenes are funny and some are really awkwardly unfunny. The romance episode is really good, and the Tablecloth Trick scene has me in tears. It's a bit like Borat, but two Brits going to America instead of a Kazakhstani man.
