I remember a few months ago, Cameron Mathison, Michael E Knight and Vincent Irizary were on the View promoting AMC's move to LA. Whoopi asked them why none of their characters have ever been with a black woman and when would they. The stage got silent and they had no idea how to respond and that moment was rather awkward

Off to YouTube...

Good for Whoopi. It is a question that should be asked of Frons and every headwriter. However, since the actors are the ones usually interviews, they should be asked the question so they can go back and ask the network how they should respond.

The smart one will say "It'll never happen. The black actresses come and go so fast we barely get a chance to learn their names."

With the way Y&R is written these days, he'll probably be the owner of a nail salon

With the way Y&R is written these days, he'll probably be the owner of a nail salon, never interact with Jack, and only appear twice a month if they brought him back.

Gotta love the Indian cab driver they cast when Chance and Chloe went to NYC. Rakesh was superpissed about that and rightfully so.

If I recall correctly Dusty and Bonnie were ended pretty abruptly weren't they?

I swear there was some backlash because Grayson McCouch (Dusty) requested the Dusty and Bonnie pairing. Which was understandable because the characters not only made sense but the actors had chemistry too. Of course, DK came along and broke them up and Bonnie was dumped to never be heard of again and Dusty ended up becoming Janet's lapdog.

---------------------------

Now we see some viewers already freaking out about the potential Ethan and Maya pairing on GH. I swear some people are never going to accept an interracial couple (especially Black woman/White male) regardless of the actors, characters, network etc.

That cab driver was played by Brian George, better known as Babu Bhatt of Seinfeld fame. He is Israeli, but is often cast as South Asian characters.
