We all know that some of the clues are really context-dependent (even for Americans) and do repeat - however, there are ways to avoid a lot of those implicit cultural references, such as through word games (e.g. Chicktionary and Spelling Bee). Since I'm not so good with watching television and don't care about "pop culture", I know offhand I can't do the "Red Carpet Reveal" game.
