Why does anyone give a shit about the British "royal" family?

Or about "royalty" as a classification, or what these people might be doing, &c, &c, &c?

It's stupid odd to be reading New Zealand or Canadian news and seeing this soap opera being presented as something newsworthy.
I must be looking at the wrong NZ news outlets?
I've not noticed any coverage on my goto outlet RNZ?

@johnbryanpeters are you referring to stories about the current crop of actual people or the interest in tv series like the crown, bridgerton, etc? or both?

i can still remember being super annoyed as a child when my parents refused to get a tv at our house in maine but my mother rented one for a day to watch diana's wedding.
