      Really ...?
      The "delivery guy" was FBI, when she came to the door the PD guy said "did you order a pizza?"
      She said "No"
      He quickly pulls out the gun from the box because it's on the ready, you don't want it getting hung up as you try to upholster it, not in his pocket. They have concealable holsters you knob. Your
      reaction time at that close of range, she could slam the door shut, or yes, if you know you're wanted by the FBI for murder, she just might answer the door with a gun.
      Are you that sheltered?

      Disney bought Fox and 20th Century Fox, but not the far-right "news" channel Fox News. That's why new movies and shows are rebranded as 20th Century Studios and dropping the Fox name. To dissosociate themselves from Fox (Faux) News. Shows like The Simpsons are now produced by Disney.

      Because Americans are often trying to do an exaggerated posh British or Cockney accent based loosely on what they heard in movies/TV. It isn't too surprising that people overseas who consume American made media would have a better grasp on the range of accents across the US and be able to replicate one with some practice. If you regularly consumed British media for a few years, it would be much easier to replicate the accent.

    The tonal difference between Ramsay's American and British show is so extreme. As an American, I genuinely thought Ramsay screams all the time, and could not watch Hells Kitchen.

    I would say fun fact here but it's not really all that fun so yeah. John Walsh's sons name was Adam. In supermarkets and retail stores and malls in America now there is a code that is referenced when a child goes missing in the store. It's code Adam. For those that don't know Johns son was abducted in a setting like one of these and due to lacking of protocol the kidnapper managed to get away with his child before doing horrible things to him. I don't recommend you Google it Simon. I feel like I understand your feelings and sentiments towards certain crimes and their graphic nature and this is one of those honestly. But basically a code Adam starts a cycle with security/loss prevention personal in the store in which all managers are contacted within the workplace immediately and the entire building is locked down completely. No one goes in or out of said store until either a, the child is found, or b, security footage is reviewed and it's proven beyond any reasonable doubt that the child is no longer in the building anyhow. I've worked in one place where a code Adam was called. They did find the child. But I hadn't known what that was until after that incident because it's not really part of training materials for these places even among management.

    America's Most Wanted was a decent show that was elevated by being genuinely helpful. John Walsh always towed the line between over-acting and putting just the right amount of drama into his narrations, but he certainly never half-assed it. He was clearly passionate about the program, and I'm willing to bet he and the production staff are proud of their accomplishments.

    Aktenzeichen is not strictly "number" - it's "file reference" more accurately. The same basic idea that "X-Files" used decades later ;) and that show is a classic of German speaking TV programs - co-produced between Germany, Austria and Switzerland. Also the staple of many comedian's jokes.

    The German "Aktenzeichen" is using numbers and letters, That's why the translation with "file number" is not working. "Zeichen" is better translated with "token" or "character" and can even encompass symbols or punctuation. The show itself was (and still is) hilarious. It was probably quite similar to the British one: very calm speech, no melodrama, was always like watching a governmental official delivering the newest update on the dryness of paint in room 254. But the cases were really cool. There is not that much "big" crime in Germany and in the 70s and 80s without internet with only three TV channels news was traveling slowly, especially when you lived in a small village in nowhere where nothing happens. So this was the first contact with real crime (outside TV shows, of course) I had.
    The best moment of the show was Eduard Zimmermann (the German moderator) was asking his co-hosts in Austria (Peter Nidetzky) and Switzerland (Konrad Toenz) about the progress they made on cases during the show. Their accents were really funny for someone from northern Germany^^ But incredibly some crimes were practically solved during the show, when people called in and told them who did the deed.
    Now I am a bit older, do not watch TV anymore...but actually help the police solve crime as an expert in forensics. I had some of my cases on the show. Funny, how things work out^^
