Lakers’ big man Pau Gasol will be making a guest appearance on an episode of the CBS drama “CSI: Miami” set to air next month. A Spanish basketball player acting on American television. That sounds like *puts on sunglasses* a tall order. YEEEAAAHHHH!!!

“It was a very attractive opportunity. I play Victor, a normal person who is involved in a car accident and police are suspicious that I am responsible for what happened. I have good, meaty dialogue with an officer,” he told daily newspaper El Pais. –AFP.

Meaty dialogue! Normal person! You know, a normal 7-foot Spaniard walking around Miami pulling his eyelids away from his face and muttering things like, “Mee ruv yoo rong time!” That’s the kind of programming we need more of on prime time–baseless Asian stereotyping from Europeans. Hey, that’s how we wound up with “The Office.”
