And when they wrote him out for Season 2, it might seem all racist-y. Unless we found out the black chauffeur ran off with Matthew and Lindsay!The guy playing Michael now is the biggest contribution of the reboot. But I think it would have been a double-edged sword back then. Daring? Absolutely. But there is a different dynamic when there is a black rich family, the show is set in Atlanta (which actually has a majority black population), and then we have a black chauffeur, as opposed to a black chauffeur as the sole black character in Denver in 1981.
And by "overdo it" you mean an affair involving presumably larger phalli ??Michael got beaten up, thanks to rich white daddy Blake.
Imagine...
But I thought the affair was provoking enough, no need to over-do it.

Yes, but to mention it and then do it 5 minutes later looks a bit obvious, and almost takes the power out of that statement.It plays into the class, culture, and race issues that Fallon mentioned regarding DC.

We get what she said, it doesn't need to be illustrated.
But 1986 was different than 1981. And the woman being black was different than the man being black.I disagree as Dominique had interracial affairs on the show just a few years later.
