Friends had that one black lady who left after a few episodes.
Seriously though, wasn't the cast of Seinfeld entirely Jewish? Do jews not count as minorities now? --- The person who writes for fools is always sure of a large audience. Friend Code: 2723-9696-7248 ... Copied to Clipboard!

Im talking about principle cast, not side characters.
For those trying to say whats the problem? Its the implication you cant have a group of friends that are all white without it being inherently racist. Thats the America we live in now. White friendship being portrayed is compromised ... Copied to Clipboard!

Same with Fraiser I mean, I like Frasier, but I can only think of three recurring minority characters: Cam Winston Cam's Mom Dr. Mary The latter two are only recurring because they appear in two episodes. Cam's mom is also only in one scene of one of those episodes. Dr Mary's first episode was also all about her race. --- https://imgur.com/Er6TT https://imgur.com/Er6TT https://imgur.com/Er6TT So?

Wtf is white friendship Something that is increasingly becoming hard to portray on TV without being called a racist.
