I know you were kidding but actually it funny that LG is not more diverse considering how well Lost and Heroes is doing look at their cast.

A non-white chick?
Will Middle America stand for that?

I'm in the midwest and I couldn't give a crap if the new girl wasn't white. But, if we go the cloning route it may not work with the story.

And P.Monkey doesn't count!
(chuckle) Your P.Monkey line reminds me that a bunch of years ago, the creators of the DC comic the
Legion of Super-Heroes, which has a huge cast (including a number of non-humans) and is set in the 30th century, got criticized because they hadn't included any non-white members of the human race (as in Africans, Asians, Natives, etc.) on the team. They seriously, and quite indignantly, replied that they didn't understand how anybody could criticise them for being non-diverse -- after all, the team included one humanoid with blue skin, and another with green skin!
Can you say "Unclear on the concept"?

Maybe a lesbian? Or be really edgy and have it be a post op transgender. Although I have to say the most entertaining would be a drag queen man would I love to see the order fight a drag queen...

Ah I forgot about that cloning theory. Hmmm.
Well at least if the new girl does turn out to be not caucasian then we can cross that one off our long list of theories at least!

Quote true Kasdeja... However, one in a group of many is not diversity.

No, but it's something to be accurate, is it not? I think this series has enough controversy surrounding it of late without creating more.

The show has controversy surrounding it? Are you talking about something other than who the new girl is?
What I suggested was not meant to make controversy I really didn't think suggesting that they add some diversity was a controversial idea.

I wasnt making comments to be controversial but more to be conversational. The fact that most comments here are so the Creators will have our oppinions, I added mine to this subject.
