Should Pam have been one-quarter Mexican?

[Snarky Oracle!]

It would give the pasty-white Ewings one additional reason to be aloof to her, and Victoria's features would work.

Only if she could also be one-quarter Japanese to celebrate being the youngest baby ever born in Japan

Apparently VP is the youngest person to ever exist in the multiverse. She has a painting of herself that shows an increasing old woman every year. VP's maid discovered it and VP hit her with a phone.

I've thought that if they were to do a remake it might make sense to make the Barnes family Latino. Ellie's parents would have disapproved of her relationship with Digger because of this, persuading her to marry Jock, instead.

I never really thought about this. Looking back on it I would say it probably wasn’t necessary though. I think the naturally built in family feud was enough and it worked well.

Ha, ha. You talk as if she survived.

Now there's only one person left to deal with. Right @Snarky Oracle ?

Pam should have been 50% Latino. Texas has a large Latino population (roughly 50%) but you couldn't tell that from the almost exclusively white cast. Pam would have been the most obvious prominent character to have been cast with a Latina actress.

Would Digger or Rebecca have been Latino? I think it should be Digger for the reason I posted above (the Southworth's disapproving of the relationship with Ellie). Rebecca could have been a lily-white girl from the wrong side of the tracks who marries well after leaving Digger. This does raise an issue with the ethnicity of Hutch McKinney, I suppose the most logical solution is for Hutch to be Latino, too.

I like the idea of the entire Barnes family being Latino.

I don't like this idea at all sorry.

Victoria played the role as a Caucasian female.

A bit feisty and as an outsider. I don't like the idea of her being one quarter Mexican otherwise when she left Dallas she would have bought Uncle Ben's instead of introducing her skin care range!!

In reality of course, Ben's Original formerly Uncle Ben's is owned by the Stivers family!!

If you spell Pam backwards you get MAP...Pam IS the world's oldest, greatest secret to find the lost treasures of Whocanfuukanburgen.

You have such a way with words Pete.
