More diverse?

We have had diverse TV shows for 40 years.

So just make more bad shows no one will watch. But this time cast people of color.

Man, if you are a transgender actor in Hollywood right now, you are PROBABLY going to get your own show.

If the show is appealing to me, I might watch.

Most network show are junk, no matter the color of the actor.

This will thankfully hasten the demise of the alphabet networks.

Keep trying, libs.

Your civil war is coming.

Maybe they ought to go out of their way to make sure their casting “looks like America” by following a strict apportionment of roles by race and gender based on census data. Of course most of the gay roles will evaporate and all of the transgender ones because really there are hardly any of either, relatively speaking, in the real world. We’ll see more mexicans and less blacks too. And all the professional whiners will have yet another thing to be disgruntled about.

No matter what you do on the stage
Keep it light, keep it bright, keep it gay!
Whether it’s murder, mayhem or rage
Don’t complain, it’s a pain
Keep it gay!

When will there be a “trans” show? They’ve tried every other perversion. There is very little on TV now, other than documentaries, that I can stand to watch.

Where is the minority transgender superhero that fights for quasi-truth, social justice and climate change? Until we have that, Liberal Amerika will not be satisfied.

Well, when it comes down to it, the network is all about the bottom line. Truth is-white people like to watch shows about white people.

“fans on Twitter pointed out the one thing they all had in common: The top-billed actor in each was white and male.”

Maybe that is because we are consistently the winners and everyone loves a winner....

Why, yes - we have white gay people and black gay people and Asian gay people and Native American gay people and Hispanic gay people and alien gay people who aren’t even human. We’re diverse!

I see that CBS aired the last episode of The Good Wife. That show had a woman lead. So can we say CBS is bigoted since they canceled a major show with a female lead????

Should the networks always submit their schedules to Al Sharpton and the Human Rights Campaign and allow veto power over schedules??? What the heck???

You can count on EVERY show to have
1) token gay, if not the main character
2) anti-republican commentary

20 years ago I started keeping a scrapbook of all the pro Democrat -vs- Pro Republican comments on TV and I never heard one single pro republican comment, but a lot of negative ones.

The one that got me started was “fresh prince of Belair” when Carlton was breaking into a safe for some silly reason and Will Smith’s character asked him how he knew how to do that, and Carlton replied “The Young Republicans Committee had a seminar”

Oooooooohhhh that pissed me off...

I wish I had kept it up

Fifty Years Ago In America No One Was Expected To Hire People Based On The Color Of Their Skin

It’s not just the networks. “Shameless” is a successful cable series. I only recently found out that “Shameless” is based on a Brit series of the same name. After tracking down a means to watch some of the UK episodes, I saw what the American producers had done.

If you have seen it, you’ll remember ‘Liam, the black child in an all white family. I forget how the US version shoe-horned him in there, but the original series has him as a white infant. Oh, and the non-US Fiorina? She bangs anything that walks, unlike the stiff US version. Frank Gallagher isn’t the centerpiece of the UK show the way he is in the US, but he gets off some good lines. One of my favorites ... “They should reduce poverty by making drugs free.”

I think they're asking this question when the FOX TV series Empire has become a major hit with the right demographic of viewers. Empire is enormously discussed on social media on both Twitter and Facebook.

TV sucks so badly across so many stations that I wonder how they can stay in business.

I don’t care if they’re green or purple, or male or female but stop with all the gays. Enough already. We’ve all but quit watching the idiot box because of gay this and gay that. That and the lying msm. The boob tube is on now but it’s some old black and white movie when men were men.
