Once started a thread on Nigeria being portrayed in US movies and on TV, this is like in that vein.

I just recently watched Castle (a pretty potential-laden new TV show that you should at least check out), and the episode was about Nigerians, juju (called voodoo in the episode) and immigration issues.\


Aldis Hodge (recently of Leverage - another fine show) did the most ridiculous Nigerian accent I have ever heard. Anyway it had Nigerians in focus and had several 'Nigerian' characters including a 'killer' who kills people with and for 'jazz'. Add that the 'Wolverine Origins' mission to Naija, I think I've seen enough Naija portrayals to last me the rest of this year,

@ Topic- yeah I saw an episode of Leverage that had 'Nigerians' though in the episode I saw they were used to nail one of their targets when he accidentally offered them a 'bribe' at least it potrayed us in a positive light.
- An early episode of monk had a nigerian runner that Mr.Monk was a fan of; loved it,potrayed us in a positive light.
-Burn notice- First episode was supposedly in Nigeria;did not really potray Nigeria in a positive light(alot of talk about corruption and smelly fish.
-Law and order SVU- Had an episode about child trafficking.

They had a Nigerian on Mr Monk and the Foreing man yesterday and they did a pretty good job.
