Shameless & Premenstrual Filipinos


So, I'm following this new series...Shameless. I learned about this from my ever reliable TV guru, Mindy TV and I have the same reaction to the first episode. WOW!!!

Anyway, episode 2 will surely have a lot of (angry) reaction from the blogosphere. Especially from the Filipino's. It's because of this line:

"What are you, a tough guy, Steve? You think you're a tough guy? Because you look like a premenstrual Filipino." - Frank


This is Desperate Housewives all over again.  I wonder if they would ask everyone to boycott William H. Macy just like a lot of bloggers did to Teri Hatcher. I still don't know why they used this comparison though ... can somebody explain? ^_^

5 shouts:

  1. Yeah, I was watchin Episode 2 and when Frank said sumthin about premenstrual Filipino i was like wtf? i'm a filipino and though the desperate housewife thing did not really cause a stir in my city, im not so sure about this one. i still love the show though but that line was a very lame, uncalled-for joke, if that's what they are trying to do.

  4. I was all giggles till Mr.Macy said that...its like I got a fist full of popcorn stuck in my throat...I guess in context he was saying to the dude that he was small and a "trying hard" tough guy...who knows,lets ask the writers ...I miss it when 30 rock made flip jokes
