Things I Like That I'm Sometimes Ashamed Of #345: Frasier

Friday, November 14, 2014



Sure. It's been over for years but it has a warm spot in my heart.

Flawed characters, funny dialogue, it had that right mix of comedy and drama, lowbrow and highbrow.

It was just a good show.

But the APIA representation...?

Nil.

Niles.

Representation either in the form of Yoshi the gardener or spoken to as sex with Martin Crane reliving his days back from the war (albeit in some ways the audience seeing his absurdity).

As a POC, it's a white show - not in a bad way - but it's also not George Lopez or My Wife and Kids.

A good show that could have been a little bit better.
