Just to point out your ignorance "Fred Sandford" was a remake of the British (White) "Steptoe & Son " of the BBC.


Wow , a gotcha moment. I bet you were drooling as you typed that. It doesn't change the premise of my argument anyway . People in America who have never heard of Steptoe would react just like I said. What if they changed George Jefferson to a poor white guy that worked hard and made it big?? What would the reaction be?

Again, the entire premise of the show was focused on an upwardly mobile black family. That was unique for its time. A white actor wouldn't have worked.

A suave badass dude in the British intelligence can be any race.
