What American TV dramas are suitable for learning English?

It is recommended to watch sitcoms (situation comedies), because for the comedy effect, their pronunciation will be clearer, and the word selection will be more life-like, and they will not have a lot of new words like detective movies and zombie movies.

1. How I Met Your Mother

A love story told in flashback. It ended last year and lasted for nine seasons.

Reason for recommendation: A relatively classic one. When it was finished, my friends around me felt as if their childhood was over.

2. Friends

It tells the story of a group of friends living together in New York and the anecdotes that happened. It ended in 2004 and lasted for ten seasons. It is considered a classic.

Reason for recommendation: It’s a relatively old movie, but it’s still quite popular. From time to time, there will be scams on 9gag in the United States.

3. Modern Family Modern Family

The story between an ordinary middle-class family, a same-sex couple family and a family of old and young couples (they are all relatives). It is still airing and has six seasons.

Reason for recommendation: Because I like their "pseudo-reality show segment" and I also like Sophia Vergara. However, her English is not standard and is used as a joke in the drama. Don't learn from her.

If you think your English is good and want to use American TV series to practice your English, you can watch a few:

4. Big Bang Theory

Yes It tells the story of several otakus who are also top students and a hot girl who is also a bad student. Later, several female scientist characters were also added. It's still on the air today, with eight seasons.

Reason for recommendation: Forget about the scientific terms, but some American pop culture, such as Marvel comics and classic science fiction movies, are mentioned in the play. You can learn about American otaku culture through this. The problem is that they talk very fast and have a lot of science jokes, so it will be a bit difficult to read at first.

5. Pushing Daisies Psychic Detective

It tells the story of a baker who has the ability to bring back the dead and uses this ability to solve crimes. Only two seasons.

Reason for recommendation: I love Ned! I recommend this show as a fan. The narrative style in the play is relatively funny, but the speech is very fast or often unclear, which makes it more challenging.

Other popular American TV series:

6. Walking Dead

7. Game of Thrones

All comparisons Two bloody American dramas for heavy-hitting friends who don't like comedies. However, the language may not be applicable to daily life. Many of my friends around me are GOT fans, and they are obsessed with it to the point where they will kill anyone who spoils it.

Of course, if you don’t watch American dramas, it’s also good to watch British dramas. Their accents are different, but I think they sound better.

9. Sherlock

I won’t talk about Shen Xia. It only lasts for ten episodes and can make fans recall it for five years. Looking forward to the special episode at the end of the year!

Reason for recommendation: Except for Sherlock, whose speech is more elusive, the pronunciation of other characters is still acceptable. And unlike American dramas that have n seasons, the BBC drama is called Constipation - it has a small number of episodes and is very good, making it easy to finish watching.

10. Downton Abbey

It tells the various forms of life of a fictional aristocratic family and its servants in the 1910s. The show is still airing today and has five seasons.

Reason for recommendation: British people speak either as noble as a gentleman or as vulgar as a gangster. To learn high-level English well, you can take a look at the speech and behavior of other aristocrats.
