As I use clips from various television programs for student exercises, I find students having more difficulty understanding what people are saying in recent shows, as opposed to older television programs. Speech from older programs seems to be more intelligible (understandable). I've chosen two clips from two programs- one is from Mike and Molly which is a very recent program, and the other is from I Love Lucy which was produced in the 1950's.
- Please watch the two clips below and leave comments as to which was easier for you to understand.
Sorry your comments are not showing up! I am going to have to work on this and fix it. Thank you.
Which video can you understand better? I Love Lucy or Mike and Molly?
