Welcome to our pilot episode! Join us as we discuss the Asian American characters on television that made a huge impact on us while growing up - meaning, we get to talk about the young, hot John Cho in Charmed, the sassy Tina Nguyen from Ghostwriter, and of course, the OG badass Yellow Power Ranger Trini Kwan!... and we might also sing some Out of the Box??

[Pilot Episode] Beyond The Yellow Ranger

October is Filipino American Heritage Month and for this episode, of course, we wanted to talk about Filipinos playing Filipinos on television.

We talk about Olivia Rodrigo on High School Musical: The Musical: The Series, Vincent Rodriguez III on Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, Nico Santos on Superstore, and Manny Jacinto on The Good Place, and all the very cool and familiar Filipino cultural nuances they bring to their shows. There's immigration stories, Filipino Thanksgiving (diniguan??), and whether we will one day see more Filipinas as main characters on the small screen.
