Spoilers! America in Season 2

I, like many other Americans, let out quite a laugh when we were all sold to Canada in the last Sam & Max episode. So I was wondering, could anyone at Telltale reveal whether the United States are still going to be owned by Canada in Season 2?

I'm sure after Max wacked everyone with his boxing glove, any mistakes done as a result of a lapse in judgement due to hypnotic influence were fixed.

Or at least I hope.

Just like any cartoon - things that happened in the past aren't necessarily there in future installments.

Provided that there is nothing meant to be in cannon. There are several cartoons where seemingly throw-away events have an impact later in the series. Gargoyles is a good example of this.

Well, they did keep the "Max as President" thing going throughout the remaining two episodes, when they probably could have easily dismissed that story element at the start of the next episode.

There a lot of ways to "reverse" the events without making them part of the stories. For instance, the opening scene on s2e1 could state something and we have the TV ads, posters, Newspapers and some random dialogs between S&M.

I could just picture the driving sequence if there was an episode set in Britain. Sam and Max end up on the wrong (the right hand side? ) side of the motorway, and have to avoid an onslaught of oncoming Minis and London Cabbies.

As long as nobody talks like the Queen (although one of the newspapers a while back had a two-page spread about her accent becoming more 'common' back when there apparently wasn't much else worth reporting), I'd be more than happy =P.

Yeah, everyone here drives on the left... well, if they know what they're doing!

That sterotype really annoys me - also the one that implies we all wear black bowler hats and suits and drink tea all day!

I'm just learning to drive (just turned 17, they'd better not put the age limit up to 18 like they said they might be doing, before I pass my tests), so I'll probably come under the not-knowing-what-I'm-doing category.

Also, I drink a hell of a lot of tea :<. Damn me and my susceptibility to conform to stereotypes.

I went looking for a picture of the "Caution: Lanes Cross" sign from arrested development, but couldn't find one

That idea for a driving game sounds great, btw.

Yeah, but Bosco can get away with it because he's actually funny!

I like British stereotypes, because in fairness most of them are true. The best thing being that when we get teased about our Britishness, we take it as a compliment

British Bosco was my favourite. "You can't go in there: it's knackered!"
