[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I noticed more black extras in the second season of Mrs. Maisel, eating at the table behind her in the deli (maybe this would have been realistic) and shopping at the high end Midtown department store she worked at (unlikely that there were many black women shopping at such a place in the 1950s). If Midge was a real person, she probably could have gone through most of her life without seeing a black person at all.

Also, has anyone noticed the glut of TV ads over the past year featuring black/white couples? There are many such couples in real life but it seems a little overly representative and forced.

I'm trying and failing to see what the problem is with any of this.

None of it is real anyhow.  Have you ever seen anyone that excited to clean their house or eat a salad in the real world?[/quote]
Not a problem, just a little unrealistic and forced. [/quote]

do you realize how ridiculous and terribly sound? It seems ridiculous and forced that commercials are showing interracial couples which do actually exist?

Or that there are black folks in the background. The background--not even being given a main role? Jesus.  The show uses 21st and current vernacular in slang. Just roll with it. Damn

You are so clueless as to how bigoted you sound. And you are probably the loudest screamer about how you're not racist or bigoted or prejudiced at all. You're just telling the truth. Am I right? I'm right![/quote]
Whatever. You’ve earned your lefty points for the day. I know they exist, but there are not enough black/white couples in reality to justify their appearance on every other TV ad. How many do you know? It just seems forced, patronising and like pandering. [/quote]
