but he's not white so it's not an issue? the photos are his uncle so that's probably actually what he sounds like as he's doing an impersonation of him?Imagine the reaction though if it was a white person playing an Indian though.
Yeah and Syed is based on his uncle, so he's pretty much doing an impression of his uncle and how he would talk. I don't see a problem with it, if he was white and putting on an accent then yes.. but he's not so we're all goodMy take is that syed is his character, so he speaks with an Indian accent so it translates into his writing
I don't think it will be a big loss if Penny is blocked, I keen forgetting about her, the father and daughter playing the character haven't made the character stand out or particularly likeableI think they might block Penny , oh well we have to wait till tomorrow now
My point is though that if he WAS white it would suddenly be deeply offensive. Doing a comedy accent should either be offensive or non offensive. It shouldn't change depending on the accent being done and who is doing it. If a white man did a comedy French accent nobody would bat an eyelid. If the same man did a Jamaican one he'd be called a racist. It is ridiculous.but he's not white so it's not an issue? the photos are his uncle so that's probably actually what he sounds like as he's doing an impersonation of him?

Is it wrong that I prefer the catfish version of Tally, to the actual person. Blue Tally is trying too hard to be 'laddish', and loud. The catfish is much more likeableThe tally “twist” is just boringlike who even cares which one is the real Tally, she’s only been in there 5 minutes, no one gives a shit I wish they wouldn’t mess with the format. Also why do they allll act so shocked when an alert pops up, like anyone who had seen the show before knows what the alerts are going to say (influencers have to block a player, blocked player is on their way to see someone face to face etc) .. it all seems so over produced and staged x
Oh same, Blue Tally is complaining too much. Orange Tally is much better haha although if they remove Blue Tally then they’ll know Orange Tally is fake. It’s a shame she picked the wrong person to catfish!Is it wrong that I prefer the catfish version of Tally, to the actual person. Blue Tally is trying too hard to be 'laddish', and loud.

I had a different take on him doing the accent, before i knew Syed was his Uncle, i was wondering how the older generation Asian men might react, i Know he is Asian himself but that isnt his real accent, so would an older Asian think he was taking the piss, rather than racist would it be a lack of respect to Asian men who were not born here, its interesting to know something like that,My point is though that if he WAS white it would suddenly be deeply offensive.
