The problem, and this is probably qualifies as a rant against me and my hearing, but I cannot enjoy it for not being able to follow much of the dialogue. Benedict Cumberbatch [Sherlock Holmes] in particular often might as well be speaking Greek. So have any other Americans been watching this and had anything like this problem?
I've not had any issues with it, but my husband, who has moderately heavy hearing damage and tinnitus from his years flying older aircraft (DC-7's, 9's, 3's, PV2's, yadda-yadda) has trouble with it. We simply use the closed-captioning.
