How come on the show "Friday Night Lights" there aren't any Mexican characters?

I've been to Texas. There are lots of Mexican people.

    Unfortunately NBC never has actually been to Texas. (Which actually thinks it's a country)

    For starters there are a lot of Mexican people everywhere.

    I'm not sure why there are not Mexican characters on "Friday Night Lights". Blacks, Hispanics, and Asians do not get on many shows unless the show is on a channel mainly for that race of people or made by a person from that race. Or if the show may just have 1 or 2 Blacks, Hispanics, and Asians on there just to make a claim.

    The show isn't aimed at Mexican people so they don't care about putting mexicans in it. It's the same with most TV shows.

    If you complain, you may get a token Mexican. They gave Friends a token black woman because of it.

    They might be racist and also because the imagration has raised a lot. Or maybe the Mexicans are scared to be in the show.

    cuz us mexicans like to party all weekend instead of hittin up football games where half the team is white and about 3 mexicans who wish they were white

    friday night is when the party starts, continues thru saturday night, and ends sunday to pay our respects.

    i'd be hittin up the town right about now if i weren't sick =[[
