Huckleberry Pie Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 (edited) That Teri Hatcher twit is dissing my fellow Filipino denizens recently... I should have boycotted DH because of this foul mouthed moron; if she's in the place of one of the doctors, being dissed by some arrogant, show-off actress, would she be happy?

Pandora Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 Don't take it personal. Almost every program disses some country for some lulz. Jeremy Clarkson does it all the time. Even when he pwnd Holland I just lol'd. Even though it was un-true, it was funny. Now I get the joke for this one too. It's not really funny though. But in general the Filipines aren't really known to be a country with very good health care (maybe they do or do not, but this is what people think mostly).. BTW, your sig. Are you serious? I mean, are just putting that up for no real reason or are you an actual Christian? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gycu Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 If someone would give me a penny everytime someone is dissin' my country I'd be rich by now BTW I love Terry Hatcher :inlove: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
draftermatt Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 Um, I think that Teri Hatcher read the lines that were given to her. Getting mad at her is stupid. If you are offended then complain about the writers of the show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huckleberry Pie Posted October 3, 2007 Author Share Posted October 3, 2007 OK, but I'll take it as racism, whether she did it intentionally or not... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sherman Posted October 4, 2007 Share Posted October 4, 2007 OK, but I'll take it as racism, whether she did it intentionally or not... It's her job to read and say words off her script. Intentionally isn't really an option here, now.. as Matt said, the writers probably did it intentionally... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pandora Posted October 4, 2007 Share Posted October 4, 2007 I've heard much worse things said in shows then that. I really don't get why you'd feel so offended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because it sucks when you get insulted like that; think of it - isn't racism rude and cruel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toaletino Posted October 4, 2007 Share Posted October 4, 2007 Racism is rude and cruel, but this was meant to be taken as a joke. Obviously the audience likes it or they wouldn´t do it. It´s all about money, and this is another way of getting it. I don´t think you should take it personally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
draftermatt Posted October 4, 2007 Share Posted October 4, 2007 You're right, a 2 second blurb about Filipino doctors is so racist. But a black comedian talking for 45 minutes about white guys is funny, and I shouldn't get offended right? Take it as a joke and nothing more. If you honestly have a problem with it write a letter to ABC about why you are offended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris82 Posted October 4, 2007 Share Posted October 4, 2007 That's true. They're just words, why should you care what she thinks? She's a Desperate Housewives actress for Christ sakes. She probably has herpes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urbanoutlaw Posted October 4, 2007 Share Posted October 4, 2007 If it makes you feel any better, I've dealt w/ plenty of American educated doctors. Wanna know a secret? They're ALL retards! Have only meat one worth anything & he moved out of state. It's just an idiot TV show & if they offend enough people, it'll just go away. In the mean time, just change the channel, that's what I do when Louis Farrakhan or some other idiot starts spewing. Yes, I called LF an idiot. He should've stuck to jazz.

Actually, I made a petition about it: http://www.petitiononline.com/x311242d/petition.html And I've found another one, filled with comments from irate Filipinos: http://www.petitiononline.com/FilABC/petition.html And some people were asking for a complete boycott/ban of the show in the Philippines...
