dreamer_easyRemark on New Earth and race from Lloyd Rose, posted at her request:
I was relieved to see, when the zombies swarmed the hospital, that at least one black person was still alive 5 billion years from now. Especially as there were no Asians, no Latin or Central Americans, no Pakistanis, no Arabs--groups among whom, for non-speaking, boil-infested roles, actors could probably have been found. I was reminded of Richard Pryor's comment after seeing "Star Wars" : "They [white people] finally got rid of us!"
Interesting point, especially since the show has generally been doing reasonably well on that front. Comments, folks? (Lloyd can read 'em here.)
