Is it worth getting upset about such a change for tv shows? How about an all Asian descent cast in series who spoke English (90%) most of the time? And it's perfect English no accent? Isn't that reality/norm for most of us in this forum, who know anyone of Asian descent on regular speaking terms? Surprise me on my last statement with anything different otherwise.

Bateman still pops up occasionally on TV or in movies, and she has also worked as a fashion designer at her own Justine Bateman Designs. Beginning in 1993, she spent a decade battling anorexia, bulimia, and compulsive overeating. Cured with the help of born-again Christianity, she is now available for paid speaking engagements on the topic of health and wellness. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Handicapped people are hard to film around. Stages have to be different, people are at different heights so framing shots will be tough, lots of cabling everywhere, plus they just aren't funny and they can't murder effectively. Too many hurdles to overcome for long. Plus, is no one going to comment on my avatar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those immigrating from non-European based countries, don't see it nor experience in that way when they live Canada, U.S. or Europe. The pressure to abandon mother tongue is profound/happens easily/fast. I'm a product of that but completely Western as soon as I popped out of the womb in Ontario. I have witnessed this profoundly in parents and relatives who have immigrated in Canada (actually Toronto) over the past 30 years. Westernization of culture is converging with people from the west integrating food, fashion, yoga (as an example), kung fu/judo, etc......but still it's Western culture that's view as the power influence for social status globally. The whole biz of Asian-Canadian identity, it's not really about Asia...it is about history and experiences in Canada. The whole, long arc. And a chunk of it ...is just about living and how people interact with one another....which is what Kim's Convenience tv show is about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
