Your favourite TV show is racist challenge.

RE: Your favourite TV show is racist challenge.
I'm sure there are shows out there you won't find have been accused of racism on the internet.

A writer/blogger/journalist would have had to write an article about that show and call it racist. It's not inconceivable that this didn't happen for every single show.

But at the same time I don't think it's much of a challenge either. What are we competing here for? People in underwear's opinions?

Hmmm... I was not informed we were supposed to be wearing underwear. Tongue

That a paulpablo fact, kiddies. Take it to the bank.

I don't know what you're rambling about.  I said I don't know if the shows are racist or not, I haven't seen every episode.

I don't know about METAtongue but these are the claims of racism for that show.

You said it's a Paulpablo fact that most claims of racism are false and relating it to what I'm talking about in this thread.
I'm saying I never said most claims of racism are false.
I'm saying there's a lot of racism claims, I don't know if they're false or not since I haven't seen all the episodes.
Unless I've missed something the point seemed pretty simple to comprehend.


Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.

Impersonation is treason.

Well the challenge is to find three in a row.

Do google searches and combine the word racist with the TV show name.

Do it three times in a row with arguably no results and you've won the challenge.  The winner gets a surprise.

I thought Star Trek: TNG would pass the test, but then I typed it into google and discovered the episode where Commander Riker savagely beats an asian man for a full 12 minutes of air time, all while screaming the most hateful, unhinged string of racial slurs I've ever heard, to the point that he actually starts frothing at the mouth. I have no idea what it's about, one minute Geordi is fixing the warp drive and giving Data a lecture on being human, then out of nowhere the camera cuts to Riker just brutalizing this random asian man in full view of passing crewmen, no context for it or anything. He seems so angry, he keeps stomping on the guy's head while screaming the n-word, by the end he's just snarling and dribbling at this bloody, possibly dead asian man who didn't even do anything to deserve it as far as I could tell. I honestly don't understand it.

Ah yes, that classic episode, Wrath of the Honky

RE: Your favourite TV show is racist challenge.
Strangely, the first one I tried did not show any accusations: Oz. That said, it took a while to filter out references to the L. Frank Baum series and other non-prison related Oz's, but it looks like, though one of the major gangs is the Aryan Brotherhood, nobody seems to consider Oz itself racist.

RE: Your favourite TV show is racist challenge.
Managed to find four series in a row that didn't have accusations of racism in the first Google page:

The Twilight zone
Fargo (and that's after taking away real Fargo, SD related news)
Stranger Things
Batman: The Animated Series
Comparing the Universal Oneness of All Life to Yo Mama since 2010.
