It makes me want to resort to violence, and beat the shit out of these producers. And no, I won’t use kung-fu; it would be pure savagery. I’m so sick of this shit.

The TV show should be renamed, “Insecure White male producers and directors have to try to make fun of and stereotype Asians”

Hmm...sad.

I wonder if there will ever be anything for the geeky, intelligent male (Asian or otherwise) and pretty, intelligent female?

Last year, the WB greenlit a spin-off of Beauty and the Geek where the gender roles would be reversed. However, it hasn't been mentioned since that initial announcement. I'm not sure if that means the show got lost in the transition to the CW or if it's a "nothing to announce" silence. There is less of a mythology to play off, as there are far more stories about the pretty woman who learns to appreciate what the geeky guy has to offer, but it would build on Ugly Betty's success.

I believe there was an (East, IIRC) Asian beauty in the second season. She was the one other beauties hated because she spent time studying for the elimination quizzes when the other beauties were chilling in the hot tub and "didn't belong" on the show because she was pretty and smart. She was likable until my mind would move to model minority stereotypes.

While I’m proud of all the brown nerds out there, I’m a tad insulted that 1/3rd of the cast would be asian. Yeah, it’s okay to be realistic about the real-world ratio when it comes to unsavoury “roles” such as this, (taxi driver & terrorist roles included, not that I have anything less than respect for taxi drivers either), but you won’t find accurate representation on medical dramas. No, because that would mean putting minorities in more glamorous and glorious (highly-coveted) roles. Harumph
