The Media Action Network for Asian Americans says it’s waiting to hear back from Fox execs in response to a letter it sent Monday asking the network to reshoot some “racist” scenes in the pilot of Fox’s new Seth MacFarlane live-action comedy series, Dads.
Fox has declined the Media Action Network for Asian Americans’ suggestion it re-shoot its Dads pilot in order to remove the scene it finds most offensive. In the scene, business partners Seth Green and Giovanni Ribisi have Brenda Strong’s employee character dress up in sexy Asian Schoolgirl costume and giggle demurely, to please Chinese businessmen.
On FOX, the premiere of Dads earned a 2.1 adults 18-49 rating up 24 percent from a 1.7 for the season premiere of Raising Hope on October 3, 2012. | tvbtn.com
