Glee Casting for Mike Chang’s (Harry Shum Jr.) Parents

Season 3 spoiler alert for Glee fans! (Well, if you read the headline, I already spoiled it for you, so sorry about that.)

Although we love to TalkAbout the Asians on Glee here on 8Asians, there are plenty of folks who complain about how the show “gets the Asian characters mostly wrong” or about the lack of depth and backstory for two the main Asian American characters, Mike and Tina.

We should be getting more backstory on Mike Chang (Harry Shum Jr.) soon since according to Michael Ausiello’s “Ask Ausiello” scoop column, “…it appears producers are making good on their promise to give Mike Chang a mom and dad. The show is quietly casting an Asian couple — stylish wife, conservative dad — to potentially recur this season.”

So who would be your picks to play Mike Chang’s parents?

We’ll find out for sure who the producers cast for these roles in Season 3 of Glee. Until then, you can peruse some of our favorite Glee discussions:

Hmmm. I’m sensing a theme to our Glee discussions. Are you?

About jozjozjoz

jozjozjoz is a taiwanese-american gal who lives and blogs underneath the hollywood sign and who doesn’t clean her fishtank unless the fish starts to do the backstroke. she is also able to leap tall buildings in a single bound, but cannot stop from bumping into door handles, cabinet doors, and anything else that protrudes or has a sharp edge. she does not run with scissors for this same reason. she can pet the fur off a dog but don’t ask her to go anywhere near a horse. or a moth. or a roach. her dealings with L.A.’s finest (aka the parking violations department) are legend, as are her giant sneezes. Other than the two too many joz’s, jozjozjoz is a perfectly normal, relatively sane individual who defies the odds, reaches for the stars, and carries moonbeams home in a jar. She’d rather be a fish… but not in her own dirty fishtank. http://www.jozjozjoz.com
