[quote=Anonymous]It's clear from the clips that it will be playing on a lot of Persian Princess (and Prince) stereotypes. I'll reserve judgment until I see the show, but from the clips it looks like it could actually touch on some really interesting issues in the Persian American community -- some cultural taboos (of course they exist across cultures), such as homosexuality even amongst many Persians in the US who reject most of Shia Islam beyond some cultural celebrations and are fiercely secular. The previews have a reason to make the show look completely absurd and over the top to get viewers, but I am curious to see whether it does manage to not be basically a Persian Gulf Shore.[/quote]
