In the US, the TV ratings will be through the blasted roof.
Ain't too many people that ever saw a coronation before.

That's both America's and Elizabeth's fault. Elizabeth's, because she insisted, for whatever reason, that it would be a dishonour on her name to abdicate; and America's, because the only monarch you even know exists is the English [ sic ] one.

I've seen two coronations in my own country alone.

I will grant that the English do pomp and circumstance better than any other nation on Earth, so Chaz's one will probably be the most watchable one for quite a while.

Just musing on the above:

I wonder if one can be a Monarchist but not a Royalist? I am a supporter of the Monarchy as a constitutional heritage thing. but I find the Royal Family themselves a big turn off. Except for QE ll who I did respect.

Most certainly. I have neither much respect nor much disrespect for our royal family as a whole - I kinda liked Juliana and Beatrix; didn't like Berhard much; liked Claus rather a lot, especially after his Declaration of the Tie and after learning that he was as much of a Bach fanboy as I am; and don't care either way about the current and next generation - but without them, we would have had Presidente For Life Geert Wilders. And I really don't want to be forced into staging a violent, bloody coup.

I tend to say that I am not so much a Monarchist as an Anti-republican. It's the lesser evil.

Well yeah, but you still worship the Sturgeon. Your opinion doesn't count.
