Oh lord your getting on my nerves...you speak about shows you know nothing about...if they put a guest star in a show they do it for a reason.

All of the guest stars the put on friends added to plot....they weren't there as stand-ins. THEY ADDED TO THE PLOT. I could tell you the reasons for each of the guest-stars but I won't it will take too much time. But I recommend you stop using shows you know nothing about. There was 6 friends btw.

So you are in support of using stereotype as a way of connecting with the ignorant masses?

I said nothing of the such. I said that script writers stick to the race they knowbest because...when they don't they usually turn to sterotypes, which i think is way worst then there being an all whatever cast. Atleast that way they are not spreading bad sterotypes.

Don't you think 400 years is long enough?

Ok, I don't know what planet you're from but televison hasn't been around for 400 years...we are talking about television not segration in general. And if you haven't noticed...shows are slowing changing they're no longer the same as they were many years ago where there were perfect little white familys in perfect little white houses. I'll use Desperate Housewifes for example. The people on that show or nowhere near the normal and the richest family on that street is HISPANIC. You see it's slowing happening as I said before it takes time. If it happens to fast it might leave as fast as it came.

TV is givnig us our ideas, we're just believing in them and asking for more.

Uh, no. Successful scripwriters write about things that PEOPLE want to see or they think they want to see. It's not the other way around. If they didn't their show would soon go on hitatus and we'd never see them or their show ever again. I'm not saying that this is a good thing that a black person wouldn't be willing to watch a "white" showbut this is the scriptwriter's job and if they want money then they write what people want....

And uh how come you never answer my question:
Why don't you write a successful script that people want to see on screen? As you see, it's not happening fast enough for you so why don't you do something? Stop complaining about this on forum and go to someone who can do something...or do it yourself.
