Really.

Plus gotta love the shout outs he gives us Indians and Desis.

That’s what happens when your parents don’t have a TV until you’re in high school. They did just get cable, however, so I plan on catching up.

I’ve been a big fan of Aasif Mandvi since he first appeared on TDS (he first played the Daily Show’s Middle East Correspondent & also did a “Gates of Hell” skit saying that they were located in Philly — or South Jersey).

I’m a Daily Show disciple and I completely missed that. The best I could do is, “That guy looks awfully familiar.”

To tell you the truth, even the guys at the show were raving about him, but I don’t really watch that show, so I didn’t really get the fuss. (And for that matter, when I first Googled him, I couldn’t even find anything b/c I totally misspelled his name *blush.)

But thanks for pointing it out!

Nothing against Dev Patel, but I already hate this stupid live action film.

Can’t even cast enough Asians. Mostly only the lesser roles are given to people of Asian (and when I mean Asian, I mean the wide Asian continent) descent

The one main role given to an Asian doesn’t even fit (Sorry. I don’t see Dev Patel as Zuko.)
