October is Filipino American Heritage Month and for this episode, of course, we wanted to talk about Filipinos playing Filipinos on television.
We talk about Olivia Rodrigo on High School Musical: The Musical: The Series, Vincent Rodriguez III on Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, Nico Santos on Superstore, and Manny Jacinto on The Good Place, and all the very cool and familiar Filipino cultural nuances they bring to their shows. There's immigration stories, Filipino Thanksgiving (diniguan??), and whether we will one day see more Filipinas as main characters on the small screen.
