I remain both astounded and annoyed by the continued lack of diversity in casting on film and television shows.
Look at any cast on any TV series today – and everyone looks the same, and if they don’t look the same, they resemble or talk like one another – with very little distinguishing characteristics in appearance and sound.
All the guys are hot, young and white with brown hair – and all the women are hot, young and brunet with blue eyes – and all of them are super-intelligent, fast-taking, acerbic drones.
