Hispanic group criticizes 'Kingpin'

"There are no balancing images" showing Hispanics in another light, Naverrete said. "If it was one of several shows on TV about Latinos, I wouldn't have such concerns."

In respnse NBC has announced the it has a new series in the works called "El Pollo Loco" which revolves around a Mexican family in the Cockfighting business. It will star Cheech Marin as the Family Patriarch, Speedy Gonzales. So far there has been no comment from the group PITA

Is this the same group that got pissed over the Taco Bell dog?

AHAHHA Dumbasses!!!!!


That show was awesome....I haven't seen something like that since boomtown(cancelled , right?)
Anyways, I think that hispanic culture is just as boundless as any other, and that the bad(Interesting😀 ) factions make for good tv.
Obviously my uncle isn't some 5-ft sombrero-toting duschbag with a human-flesh-eating tiger, but it is still entertaining.

Its not like the producers are anti-hispanic; there are tons of movies based on drug cartels/trafficing. I saw 'proof of life' and thought highly of it.


The show isn't about hispanics...it is about characters that 'happen' to be hispanic.....and 'happen' to 'traffic' 'pleasurables'

Ha

The show looks cool to me, besides its giving hispanics a shot at a good TV series.

george lopez is cool (funny comedian too) but man the show stinks.

What really pisses me off is that these anti-predjudice groups will only allow good wholesome things about there culture to be on tv. When reality is broadcast they yell foul.


The beauty of this country is that tv is composed of bth the successes and tribulations of every sulture. Be it caucasian, black, hispanic, muslim etc.

TV is ENTERTAINMENT......it should be fun to watch.

I DON'T want to see boring hispanic shows on tv...I want action adventure...suspense...


kingpin...
