Masterpiece Theater / Theater

Howdy. I see you reverted my recent change to Tom Brown's Schooldays (TV serial), giving "Undid revision 600854145 by Topbanana Name of US TV show thus "theatER"" as the reason.

The 're' spelling seems to be used consistently by the shows producers and broadcaster - for example at [[1]] - hence my change. Our own article (Masterpiece (TV series)) does the same. I'd agree it's odd for a U.S. show - I can only imagine the shows namers wanted to give it a hint of classical or European charm.

I'll watch this page and wait a few days before reinstating my change. Cheers - TB (talk) 07:52, 1 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Good to know that some Americans can actually spell, albeit just the arty ones. I stand corrected and will change it back. Will
