Your favourite TV show is racist challenge.

[RobertE]

Another one that could be considered racist because he has a go at Irish and some blacks, but nothing too extreme. A laugh from start to finish:

Yeh but this is more a thread talking about this challenge, and tv shows where you're surprised there's an accusation of racism.

All you've done there is put a video up of a guy who's fairly obviously going to be accused of racism.
I live not too far from the Bernard manning social club if it's actually still standing in Moston.
He pretty much made his living telling jokes based on racial stereotypes.

"Of a guy?" You live not too far from his "Embassy Club", and you don't know who he is. I'll ignore that. As for me, born in Wythenshawe just south of Manchester and brought up in Moss Side where blacks to white ratio was something like 15:1. My parents had sense and moved out of there otherwise I might have been in prison by now. Getting back to the point, yeah, he was racist, but only in his shows. Furthermore, he attacked anyone verbally in the crowd. He didn't care if they were yellow, white, black, brown, Irish or a yid. He did jokes about them all and they all laughed. All those in the audience knew what his content would be and they still went. The only ones who complain are a) fannies and b)people who don't have a sense of humour and auto-derision. 

Back on topic for racist tv shows:

"Mind your language"
"Til death do us part"
"In sickness and in health."
"It ain't half hot mum."
"Love They neighbour."

All racist as anything, but it made for good entertainment and it took racial tension off the streets. Bring them back so we can have a good old laugh again.





And are we going to ban a film that was a true story about Sir Barnes Wallis and his bouncing bomb?

[Edwardo Piet]

Chubby Brown is a racist unfunny prick though.

[Cecelia]

Point Pleasant.

Nope, no accusations of racism. Which is kinda weird, because i'm pretty sure the show is nothing but white people.

yeh ok.............The topic never had anything to do with blabbering on about the racist tv shows you can find and your childhood, it's a pretty simple challenge.  I don't get what's so difficult for people to comprehend about this.

It's about trying to find the TV shows which haven't been accused of racism. So yeh, nothing to do with just listing shows that are very well known as being fairly racist.

Yeh a lot of the shows I searched have been accused of very harsh racism just for the show only having white people in.  Literally guilty for being white.  Sienfeld and Friends this definitely applied to.

I've never even heard of point pleasant though.

Chopped, on Food Network, is racist. Apparently they chop the black contestants before anybody.

[Faith No More]

That's funny 'cause I've seen dozens of episodes of Chopped, and I've seen a black person go all the way on a few occasions. Hell at least on of their judges is black.

And notice how the criticism is coming from a white person.

I can think of at least a couple of sitcoms, something like "My wife and kids", which always depicts white people as inferior or stupid. It was clearly trying to show a stereotype.

Life Unexpected also hasn't been accused of racism.

[Arkilogue]

Everybody and everything gets accused of racism these days. It's also mostly white people calling other white people racist. It's so overused that it sadly has become totally meaningless for something to be called racist. I think we would be better off having the word racist meaning something of substance. I think it needs to invoke imagines of hoods and burning crosses and hitler. Instead it's meaning has been expanded to the point that every tv is considered racist. The meaning has become so broad that it mostly invokes eyerolls. Even Islam will call people 'racist' for opposing a religion.

It's the Syndrome of our times...
