Honestly, to an English speaking North American with typical deficient exposure to the complexities of a lot of other cultures and languages, a lot of the English-language translations for shows and movies from other parts of the world end up coming across that way. Mostly, I just assume it's something lost in translation and totally not a big deal, of course.

Sonofabitch, I had no idea. Thanks

Yeah, and this thread made me look up who runs themoviedb.com. It's the parent company of TiVo so no small business either. But for now, I see it as somewhat less shitty than IMDB still.

Yeah, this happens to everyone. Most people would quite literally translate how they would say something in their language to another. But in doing so, they still retain the grammar, character, syntax and words of their mother language to the foreign language they are trying to speak, which messes things up. I can kinda see it on people of foreign backgrounds when they speak English. It is amusing that I have an African colleague who says "I see you" to mean "hi". In English, saying "I see you" sounds like you are watching and suspicious of someone, but in some parts of Africa, it means you recognise the person as an individual.
