Why would you expect Latin American slang be "common" in Switzerland
or Great Britain?

Did I say that, if so, please cite.

I'll leave the above clip intact, instead of citing it. (And I
thought I had a short attention span!)

You said the show is Swiss, and that it was bought by the British (I
assume you mean the BBC?). And then, in the very same sentence, you
say that if the term were in common usage, it would have been
changed. Why would you expect Latin American slang to be in common
usage in Switzerland or the UK?

Satellites beam programing world wide.

Please, do tell me more.

Perhaps if you and your *buddy* had more varied *interests*, you'd be more
familiar with childrens programming.

What makes you think I'm unfamiliar with children's programming?
