Featured review
Only missing a 'racist neighbour' character played by Roy Chubby Brown.
The writers, who are Chinese themselves, had an opportunity to educate, but instead chose to resort to using dated and offensive stereotypes and act like clowns.
They made this sort of TV in the UK back in the 1970s with programmes like Love Thy Neighbour and Mind Your Language.
Yeah sure, they were *supposed* to be poking fun at the racists, but in reality, they just legitimised racist behaviour and language.
Deeply unfunny, and on the two occasions in this pilot episode, the addressing of a racial stereotype was swiftly followed by a *joke* containing another.
The writers have done Chinese people in the UK absolutely no favours at all with this awful programme. Personally, I'm looking forward to renewed amounts of racial abuse from complete strangers in the street just like I experienced growing up in London in the eighties.
Part of me wonders if this is just a big elaborate hoax by Chris Morris.
But then again, if it was, it would've been funny.
