	If I've missed any significant characters on a long-running series, please let me know.

	Does Asian or Asian-American include Martians and Cylons now? :P

	Hey Rockgolf. GREAT Idea for a quiz, but you could totally cut down the time like to 6 or 8 minutes, because it is a long time to stare at the ones you don't know. The ones I was totally expecting to see here were Hop Sing from Bonanza or Arnold from Happy Days or Kelly from the Office. There are so few good Asian/Asian-American roles in the history of TV.

	And then there is the decision on if Kung Fu counts since David Carradine was SO, SO not of Asian descent.

	@Chromatos: I for one welcome our new Asian-American Martian and Cylon masters!

	There's Lloyd Lee on Entourage, Lane Kim on Gilmore Girls and Amita Ramanujan on Numb3rs.

	I thought of Arnold, but not Hop Sing. I excluded Arnold because I wanted to keep to non-stereotype roles. (I'd include him in a list of Asian Oscar nominees.) Same deal would apply to Hop Sing. But your last suggestion is going in. And I didn't forger David Carradine. Check the URL. Actually, my daughter was an extra in the Toronto-made series Kung Fu: The Legend Continues.

	@Jaqggedhawk: Those are great! I don't/didn't watch those show but they definitely qualify.

	what about tom played by aziz ansari from parks and recreation or someone from outsourced

	No Ken Jeong from Community?? Come on, man.

	Fez was Asian? Awesome!

	wickedannabella:	Dec 6th, 2010 at 10:49 GMT		1 point
	Ooh - what about Jonathan on 30 Rock and Annyong on Arrested Development? Awesome idea for a quiz, btw :)

	@celestialaly12: d'OH! I only follow about 30 people on Twitter and Ansari is one of them. @Loubert: He's great, but he's only on about half the episodes.

	rockgolf:	Dec 6th, 2010 at 13:05 GMT		1 point
	@wickedannabella: They're pretty minor characters on those shows. For the most part I'm looking for character who are in virtually every episode during their own time on the show and/or in the opening credits.

	Valderrama is Colombian and Venezuelan. Are you sure there is Asian in his background?

	rockgolf:	Dec 6th, 2010 at 14:54 GMT		1 point
	@SuIly2: I'd assumed by the name he was vaguely Asian, but you're right. He's about as Asian as David Carradine. So he's been taken out of the quiz.

	MghtyRoach:	Dec 6th, 2010 at 14:54 GMT		3 points
	I'd argue Bashir -- it's never clear where his character is originally from, and Siddig is of Sudanese-English origin.

	rockgolf:	Dec 6th, 2010 at 15:38 GMT		1 point
	@MgthyRoach: Okay, agreed, Sudan is definitely not part of Asia, so Siddig gets the boot too.

	How about Vince Masuka from Dexter?

	shiNKorea:	Jan 28th, 2011 at 06:16 GMT		1 point
	yea put in Vince Masuka, Maulik Pancholy and Annyong if you want. Fez actor is not asian. Great job with the quiz (my mom knows Sandra Oh!) and Ken Jeong is the MAN

	George Takei is misspelled.
