        It's not the fault of the show that the country has become so pc that they get offended and the smallest minutiae. Everything is offensive to them. They are waiting in the wings to jump on anything they can so they can play victim. Everyone is a caricature but not a racist one

        Come on people, this is a cartoon. What happened to America’s sense of humor, no one complained until 2017.

        If this is offensive, I’m offended that you’re that thin skinned. Weak.

        All of the characters are caricatures, satirical and larger than life. Apu has become a beloved part of a series full of great characters. But even the white characters (or yellow ones) are treated in the same vein. No one is off limits. Everyone is an equal target.

        What a contrived controversy. There is nothing wrong with Apu.

        It really doesn’t look like the studio is even remotely troubled. I don’t foresee any changes until the show ends, regardless of what viewers prefer.

        There is no problem with the character. He's funny. Leave it at that.

        Can we take deplorable Barney off too and every unsavory depiction of white males including Homer? Let's completely neuter American satire to the point you won't be able to tell it from a corporate diversity training powerpoint.

        Well, just remove the character. Will that make the millenials happy?
