The special episode has an impressive line-up of 30 guests.
Fans, however, were disappointed to find that not one of the stars was Black.
Not even Aisha Tyler was included, who appeared as Charlie in a smattering of episodes in Seasons 9 and 10 and is the only Black artist to have appeared for a significant role in the highly successful show.
