Desperate issues over Desperate Housewives.

The premiere of the 4th season of Desperate Housewives surely didnt get praises from Filipinos, especially the ones who studied for almost a decade to finish medical school and just be degraded in that kind of manner.

Personally, i was taken aback when i watched episode 2 days ago but not to that certain extent where i wanted the show to get banned. When she said "SOME med school in the Philippines"... well, i agreed a little.

If Susan (Teri Hatcher) mentioned Recto for fake diplomas, or the leakages behind the nursing boards and the Fatima Exam years ago, i think we could somehow sarcastically giggle about it.

Knowing that it would create a negative treatment towards Filipino Doctors abroad, of course im furious. But reacting like Sen. Biazon did, its... weird. immaturely weird. There are a lot of ways to find resolution than this. Public Apologies, yes. Doing a line on the next episode that would contradict the last episode's slur, maybe.. but proposing on banning the show? ok ka lang?

Its like when Jay Leno made a joke about the troops sent by our country... one radio station talked about it for an hour and a half saying... "dapat kasi wag ng panoorin ng mga pinoy ang show na yan, ang haba haba ng baba."

wow. that would SURELY resolve the issue. that would actually make the Filipino reputation uprise like their statue of liberty.

like when Karen Walker (Will And Grace) said that "i love filipinos, theyre asians but theyre not cocky about it." we laughed. thinking its so funny because we lost our culture. no wonder why in some countries, filipinos are considered "islanders" and not asians.

like banning Claire Danes because of one derogatory statement regarding of where she shot a movie here. Misquoted ng mga taong hindi nilalagay sa lugar ang pagkapikon.

Diyan tayo magaling. On fueling the fire. On making everybody focus on a comedy show, on an actress, instead of improving this country and prevent others to make us as their punchline.

ABC already made a statement. Apologizing for bellitling practitioners of the medical profession in our dear country.

Satisfied enough? ok. back to your regular red taping.
