greybaby, it's a show on the CW about a Muslim foreign exchange student named Raja who is living in the Midwest with a nerd.
It's actually a really funny, amazing show!! More people should watch it, but not very many people have heard of it.
it's on every Sunday at 8:30! Check it out sometime!

Hysterical show that actually got most raves earlier this season. And Amy Pietz is fantastic as the mom with a perfect Wisconsin accent.

Posted: 3/16/08 at 9:44pmI thought it was a neat concept, but never got around to watching it. But tonight, I was watching Everybody Hates Chris when I heard the director say "That's our Roger" and I thought it was probally RENT. I don't knopw any other shows with a Roger. And what was with Roger being the first one out there with Seasons Of Love playing?

If anyone is interested, the CW website has about 4 full episodes you can watch for free.
I've got a few episodes on Itunes too!

Posted: 3/16/08 at 11:33pmI watched it. I thought "Light My Candle" was very funny yet strange at the same time. Aliens in America is a great show. I was suprised to see Larisa Oleynik on this episode. She was the girl who was supposed to be Mimi. I haven't seen her on tv in a long time.

Can I just ask if they all live in the midwest, how come his mother is the ONLY one anywhere on the show with a midwestern accent?
Odd.
#15re: Aliens In America
Posted: 3/17/08 at 7:52pmI was wondering that about her accent last night. Maybe the other actors just can't do that accent or something.

Posted: 3/17/08 at 7:56pmI love his motions and accent especially on "You look like your sixteen!"

Also, I feel Roger was too seductive and not laid back. Especially on "I'm Roger"
I know he's not a stage actor but I still feel his Roger was funny with the accent and wierd motions.

Posted: 3/17/08 at 8:49pmBahahahah, I know, I love how he's overacting so much on that line! And I love the mother's "but old for my age!" It's just funny because she's his MOTHER, so she is waaaaaay old for her age! lol
