Russia isn't another planet. Most, if not all, countries are organized by sub-units, that, in turn, are divided into smaller jurisdictions.
Most Russians can't afford to go to the US.
You can see the countryside/rural areas on youtube. Russia's a vast country, stretching from the Arctic Ocean (tundra) down through forest zones, to open prairie (steppe) and to more arid regions. It has similar variety to the US.
Why do you assume Russians have any interest in American TV, or access to it? They get TV programming from around the world. Mexican and Brazilian soap operas were insanely popular in the 90's, for example.The interests of most ordinary Russians don't revolve around American culture. Not sure why you'd assume they would.

Personally, I don’t think Japanese are crazy).
On the contrary, I respect them for those things:
- They’re hardworking and tend to do quality stuff
- They’ve got curious and investigative mind (robotics and so on)
- Frequent natural disasters also created disciplined and stoic mindset. I remember tsunami in Japan 2011- while I felt very sorry for them, I also admired their attitude.
Yeah Straight Arrow - but those were SOVIET TIMES. When travelling (price of tickets) was cheap and affordable.
It's a different story in CAPITALIST Russia.
P.S. When I look at this particular pic of Brezhnev, "So how are you doing there, guys? Do you have enough of sausages now?" - it makes me chuckle somewhat))
I guess you right - that was another era. Good bad Soviet days.
Just read an article about Crimea beaches that becoming less and less. Oligarchs built cement fences to mark their private beach properties.
So that ordinary people cannot go through their beach or even see the water.

Russia is just interesting country just like Russians wonder about United States
All my friends and relatives watch tons of American TV show.
I like everything funny and smart like Friends. My parents like dramas/politics like House of Cards or Homeland. My husband likes action like Game of Thrones.
Russians living in the Far East and Siberia ABSOLUTELY HATE the CHINESE.
They HATE their business that's encroaching in the area for the predatory practices, and devastation that they leave cutting out the forest.
I am surprised that you know nothing about the situation.
I have heard illegal logging is a real problem in the forests and not just along the border areas, it goes far north. Poaching and other bad practices are widespread. It's not just the Chinese either.
In the long run do you think Russia should have a stronger relationship with Korea and Japan to keep China in check, or all the talks of Russia turning into Chinas lapdog is just rubbish and that Russia should focus on growing a stronger and closer relationship with China? Also what do you think about Kuril island dispute? Can’t Russia just give them the islands but with the condition that Russia can keep their military bases there?
