Coulda sworn you said it was good! Good thing that's the one time I didn't take your advice! :)
-------------- Original message -------------- From: "Tracey de Morsella (formerly Tracey L. Minor)" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Whooa!!! I NEVER Said it was good. at least i can't see myself saying that. I said that the black roles were not secondary. The black guy is a lead and some of the shows have been around Baily the Black female, whose character I hated as a black female stereotype, but now has grown on me. There is also the Black chief of surgery who in most instances plays a secondary role, but for an ensemble cast, has some segments devoted to him. I am ashamed to say I do watch it periodically. I would love to blame it on being in Mexico with a somewhat limited selection of shows, but i think i would probably watch it if i were still in the states. it is my guilty pleasure... but hardly well-written.
