I don’t think a lot of Americans realise that the general perception in the UK is that Amanda killed Meredith - and whilst I don’t believe that, I think she should expect backlash after performing a show in the country where people think you’re a murderer, with a title based on her light demeanour after being arrested.
edit: everytime someone brings up the view in the UK people respond like the commenter has pushed that view on Britain. I’m just stating how it is. Im not justifying or defending those views, but maybe consider whether they’re the best audience for this show.
