First thought (from the April 2007 Marie Claire feature on Sandra Oh): "It's not only that Oh is Asian; it was also that she wasn't our kind of Asian, with that delicate/etheral/submissive/zen vibe. So what followed were years of walk-ons and one-liners and best-friend and cop roles."
Second thought: TBS has been playing Harold and Kumar Go to White Castle almost non-stop all weekend, and I just can't get enough. Harold is not "our kind of Asian" either, and Kumar is not our kind of Indian, and I love them love them love them for it.
