    I think it was that Vietnam show 'China Beach' where the sun was always setting over the ocean to the west. That doesn't make sense, unless you're on the very southern tip of Vietnam. It makes sense if you're in California, though.

    More stereotypes of the Chinese.

    After seeing the Mazola corn oil commercial, I think a lot of Indians were crying about the airwaves being polluted with stereotypes.

    We should try some U.S. stereotypes, such as people in business suits with dollar signs printed all over them. What about playing Yankee Doodle everytime an American enters the room in a Chinese sitcom? They always play that little oriental theme music everytime a Chinese person enters the room on an American show (deety deety, doot doot, dut dut, dah!)
