How is it that Cheers, Frasier, Friends and Seinfeld - four of the hugest TV sitcoms that American TV has ever produced - managed to churn out 40 or 50 full length series between them, at 24-26 episodes each, without - for all intents and purposes - having any significant black characters in any of them? Is it 'just one of those things' or was it a deliberate calculation?

what if no black person wanted to be part of it in the first place?

Originally posted by FMF What form of sheer ignorance are you trying to satirize here?
I don't know what you want.
make your point clearer. are you saying they don't have black people because they're racist? are you saying they have to have black people? are you saying black people don't want to be in the show?

The OP could not have stated a topic more clearly and could not have raised follow up questions any more straight forwardly.

Do you have an opinion or answer to my question apart from answering the question with a question or saying, bizarrely, "what if no black person wanted to be part of it in the first place?"
