I don't know my son's best friend is Lebanese and he looks a lot like him. Big blue eyes and light brown hair. His mom is very dark and father is much lighter. People come in all shades. Come to think of it, my son also has a friend who is first generation Greek with dark eyes and hair but he has an older brother with blonde hair and very light blue eyes. Mom is dark, dad looks like your typical All American Male-blonde blue eyes, tan-he was born and raised in Greece.


People do come in all shades, but they could have found a Middle Easterner to play a character from the Middle East:

I just caught up on the last 4 episodes. Wtf? The daughter in law shot him? Not that he didn't deserve it, but that was out of left field.

The son's story line is so lame too (looking for his "friend" abdul, inheritance thing, etc.).

They must have had an increase in budget though...all kinds of things blowing up, shootings, huge props/equipment, etc.

So, no one actually likes this show? Because I do. Are there issues? Yes. But I like it anyway.

Although I wish they'd kill off the son or something. He's a horrid waste of space.

The wife needs to retake acting classes as do the kids.

It's annoying how storylines just pop up though- last season it was the ditzy Aunt, this season the "other" brother.

Series is original so I gotta hand it to fx. Dialogue and acting need improvement, but I still end up watching it.

I am. I think this season looks more promising. Haven't watched last night's episode yet, though.
