first time someone tweeted about the show on my timeline I clicked on
the replies and only made it to the third one before seeing my first BUT
BRAINS ISN’T INDIAN comment. I was disappointed but not at all
surprised.
I feel slightly bad putting this out here since she is a lovely person, but when I asked my mother-in-law (well, soon-to-be mother-in-law) if she watched the show, she say, “oh no, because they’ve made the characters Indian now!” At my look, she reassured me that it wasn’t because of the Indian-ness, her complaint would be the same if they’d made anybody French, she just didn’t like the characters from her childhood being messed with. Or something.
