In similar vein, the Sliders tv series (~20 minutes):

The author of that channel has others as well that I liked:
Space: Above & Beyond - 16 minutes
Xena: Warrior Princess - 21 minutes
Seaquest - 22 minutes

Oh boy. Sliders. If any sci-fi didn't need to have a big bad, it was this show. Could have been like Quantum Leap.

That's really interesting stuff. I never use subtitles, unless it's a non-English film, but my ex uses subtitles all the time.

You have no problem with American accents? I really need help with the variety of British accents. When I was watching "The Thick of It," you better believe I had subtitles on. Especially when Malcolm and Jamie are conversing.
What's Jamie saying?!

I've lived all over the UK over the years, so I guess I have just had to get used to different accents, etc. When I was living in Scotland the first time round, I was a childminder for a Geordie family and a Welsh family, so had to get used to both those accents plus the Scottish, and of course I've watched American shows for most of my life.

Every once in a while someone will say something that throws me off, but not often enough to warrant me using subtitled, its pretty rare.

Story behind this is that "Usi" sounds like a word for vagina for the various Pacific Islanders. So to add to the surprise of Sammi just dropping that word, then the innocent, oblivious crowd yelling "Usi" at them, the Samoans were going to crack.

Well, thank you for the explanation! That makes it even funnier. What's the cherry on the sundae, Sami Zayn doesn't tell them what he's gonna say during the segment. He's made them crack many a times... until the Royal Rumble 2023.

How about the Yorkshire accent? "Tin tin tin" = "It isn't in the tin?" No way.

Kristen Schaal upon hearing the Yorkshire accent for the first time: "Were they mumbling, because that sounded terrible." Sequence of event begins at 1:45.
