British Invasion

Ok so I could not help but notice that this country is being taken over.

No, I did not mean by immigrants (racist) or by aliens (weirdo) or by liberals (fat cat.)  I mean by British Actors disguised as Americans.  There are tons of shows I really enjoy, then I tune in to Dave Letterman or Jay Leno and hear the actor interview with a surprise accent.

Let's be vigilant about this people.  Their population is only a fifth of ours, can we not find an American actor to play an American character?  But seriously, take away any of the hot ones and I may get vicious.

British

Batman Christian Bale
Rob Pattinson from Twilight
Intuitive detective Simon Baker from the Mentalist
Too bad it was canceled, Damien Lewis from Life
Incredible shoulders Joseph Fiennes from FlashForwad
Surreal FBI show Fringe's Anna Torv*
House's Hugh Laurie

* She is actually Australian but it was a colony of Great Britain and let's face it, they are like the British but with worse Indian food and a greater penchant for playing pranks.
