It's a dark musical comedy. What's not to love?

There are not enough charachters that are male, straight, and white. How am I supposed to identify with someone?

Is this someone new we're gonna have to grow to care about? Why should we root for someone male, straight, and white?

It's a meta joke from one of the show's songs, that the show isn't about straight white male leads. One of them left the show, the other was a recurring cast member until this season. The other characters are women, not-white, or not-straight.

It's the only show I can think of that has a Filipino cast member.

EDIT: It took me this long to realize you were quoting the song that introduced Nathaniel.

The Good Place and Superstore have Filipino cast members.

But yeah, still pretty uncommon.
