That's Racist?

So, I'm watching 'Top Design' and the first thing that I noticed (as always) is that there's no Black Folk.

What? Black Folk don't decorate? They don't like to paint walls or buy throw pillows? They have no sense of visual aesthetics?

I know I don't. I could care less about what's on my walls or on my couch. But I do like to see my peeps represented properly.

C'mon 'Top Design' give a brotha (or a sista) a break. Show us the love. It IS Black History Month after all.

And talk about stereotyping! Are all male interior decorators gay? Apparently so, according to this show!

Just an aside...What's the deal with Todd Oldham's teeth. You'd think the man'd have enough money to get his grill tight.

He's also a bad host. There was no finesse to the introduction of the players. It's definitely no 'Project Runway.'

I'll give it another looksie just to make sure I'm over it.
