In the year 2025, what must we do. Who must we call, write, yell, bully, shame to get another female, preferably WOC firefighter at Firehouse 51... Kylie Estavez has been a part of this damn show since SEASON 8 & you mean to tell me Jack Damon gets a permanent spot on Engine but not Kylie!? The more I sit and think about it i just...
"We had a diverse set and a very queer set as well which was just like...it was like for me this is just like a dream."
It seems as though Sandra Oh and her gay little heart really enjoyed being on the set of Quiz Lady. But why?
Oh yeah. That's why. Sorry if this is new to any Killing Eve fan who came in after this all shit went down in 2020. Here's some context for any latecomers.
Sandra Oh has said she believes the UK is “behind” when it comes to diversity in TV and film.
The Killing Eve star pointed out that she has been the only Asian person on set for many of her projects and said she believes the UK is further behind than the US.
“Being the sole Asian person is a very familiar place for me,” the Canadian-American told Kerry Washington as part of Variety magazine’s Actors on Actors series. “The UK, I’m not afraid to say, is behind. I’m not only the only Asian person on set – sometimes it changes, [it’s] very exciting when someone comes on set.” She continued: “The development of people behind the camera is very slow in the UK. I don’t know about the rest of Europe. Sometimes it would be me and 75 white people and I have not come from that.
“I have not come from that in my film career, which has been much more independent, mostly working with women and women of colour. And my relationship with television – and in the United States – hasn’t necessarily been all white.”
After four seasons of shooting in England with all-White, predominantly male, and definitely straight crews, I bet Sandra appreciates being back in the U.S.A. where diversity (and queerness) is a feature on Quiz Lady, not a bug like Killing Eve.
all i want is a well represented chubby/fat dr character.
i am fully aware that it is far too much to ask but. god. it is bad enough that i can count the number of bigger characters on one hand; but it's worse that literally none of them are women.
sakura is the only one who isn't super small but she's buff ! which is good - but the other characters were written to make wayyy too many comments/jokes at her expense. she's pretty, fight me about it.
there is hardly any diversity in the body types of the cast - and when there is - it's turned into a joke or stereotype. i just want a chubby/fat/otherwise not totally thin dr character that isn't a joke. especially a girl.
Public Service Announcement: No matter how well-intended or how much writers assert they know how a character ticks, when the character is played by a person of color, they are usually the experts about the subtleties and nuances of the character and not the writer.
Sandra Oh proves this to be so. When the writers room includes no people of color, this becomes a near-certainty.
'Killing Eve' is currently facing backlash for it's lack of diversity in its writers' room. Will it change Season 4? The creators haven't responded.
Nope. We aren’t done here yet. Shout-out to @el-waylly for getting recognized for dropping the knowledge on why the all-White writers room is highly problematic. Because it is.
BBC America’s “Killing Eve” is facing backlash for what appears to be a stark lack of diversity in its writers room for season four. Eyebrows were raised on Friday night after one of the seriesR…
Shit got real.
Yesterday a 24 year old white girl tried arguing with me about how Chinese people aren’t Asian and that Chinese people are their own race and I’ve been so confused and thinking about it ever since
