I really didn't know what to expect when I started watching this show. I thought it would be a xenophobic spoof of The Office that was trying to appeal to displaced Americans in the work force... why would I watch that? well just to see scare tactics that people use to try to divide a country more...lol
But to my surprise Outsources is a really funny show. If you are an American, Indian, African, or anything in between and have a sense of humor, you will love this show. Its cute. It has equal opportunity jokes and really tries to combat stereotypes in jest. It also lets us realize how offensive we could be sometimes when we dont know it and makes us more sensitive to other cultures. Take a peak at the pilot episode and let me know if you liked it too!
This is the diary of a Gidi Girl or one in the making. I may be a Nigerian girl in America now, but my hopes and dreams take me to Nigeria; Lagos to be specific. I don’t know how or when I’m going to get there, but I will! Follow me on my journey which hopefully should lead me back to Lagos, Nigeria aka Las Gidi. Fasten your seatbelts Ladies and Gentlemen, it may be a bumpy ride!!!!!
