Yeah, whatever. Someone looking for something to feel umbrage over will find it no matter what.

I'm in the middle of a Charlie Chan Netflix run and I found it pretty amazing that at that time, the Chan brothers and sisters were so westernized.

FWIW, the guy who played Jimmy Chan in the post WWII era films (Reno, Dead Men) later became the legendary Hop Sing on Bonanza.

Awesome.

And for all the complaining those films gave a lot of Asian actors work. They weren’t stereotypes.
