Of course, Brits are the villains, and Americans are the poor victims. This pattern has become really annoying!

@de: I don't think that was a deliberate thing. And if it makes you feel any better, in America on American tv shows, Americans have played the villains.
shareLong term karmic dividends for having had the largest Empire in history.

So, the price is to be "bad guys" in US movies and tv-series? ;) IMO, unofficial US Empire is far more worse then the British Empire ever was!

Well that's a easily debatable point of view but not the point. By 1922 The British Empire was 22.63% of the world. That's why you're often bad guys. Not only in US fiction but Canadian, Australian, and Indian. Also throughout Africa and the Middle East (even though in these areas the US has begun to usurp the UK as the ultimate bad guys they still don't like the UK).
History has a long memory.

Sorry, I'm not British...... not even close. But, you're right, well, about 3/4 of what you've said! ;)
