But see the language thing really does matter... If people can't understand, they won't watch.
Here's a real life example:

About three years ago my family and I were on our way to visit relatives in Fredericksburg Virginia for the weekend. We stopped in a Burger King in Leesburg Virginia...... where every single employee on duty spoke Spanish and NO English. People were walking out because they couldn't get their orders placed. Luckily for me I took seven years of Spanish in school and still know enough to squeak by. We actually placed an order and it was correct.... but we were about the only ones that didn't walk out.

How do you say "Coke & Whopper" in Spanish?  :*))
Fredricksburg? My niece went to Mary Washington!
