Casting Asian-American men as geeks, two seasons running

Oh, Beauty and the Geek why must you annoy me as much as you entertain me?

The third season cast has been announced and the season will, once again, include three Asian-American cast members (via Racialicious), which probably gives the show the highest average number of Asian-Americans cast each season in reality television… by casting them either as socially awkward smart guys or as a pretty woman who’d rather spend time studying than relaxing in a hot tub if helps her accomplish a goal.

Le sigh.
