That sounds like a brilliant idea for a ficathon. Just imagine the difference in the show if Buffy had been black. (For a start she would have had some godawful accent like Kendra...)

Or how differently Dean's masculinity reads when he's not played by a white actor. The possibilities are endless and interesting!

If you're interested, somebody did a fantastic chromatic recasting of BtVS a while ago. ( Here.)

Oh wow! Thanks for linking to that. They cast PERFECTLY, omg.

Thank you for the pimp, madam!

The sign-up thread as a lot of interest in the comic book 'verses!

I wonder if all of the buzz around Patterson Joseph last year won't influence the BBC to cast a Actor of Colour next time? I should probably just say a Man of Colour - we're so unlikely to get any woman in the role at all - but maybe that it Joseph was so seriously considered by so many people has opened up a few doors.
