Added DiffLines:

* ''Series/OnlyFoolsAndHorses'' was criticised for depicting Peckham as a mostly white area and for a general lack of ethnic minority regulars (the obvious exception being Creator/PaulBarber as Denzil), although we see one black neighbour and mention is made of several unseen characters of BAME ethnicities in the neighbourhood.

Added DiffLines:

* ''Series/{{Haven}}:'' The show's core cast and most of the recurring secondary characters are white. As the show is set in Maine, one of the least ethnically diverse areas of the country, this is not entirely unjustified, but it is [[LampshadeHanging lampshaded]] in an early episode when Audrey goes through ''Haven Herald'' microfiche to see if "the dark man" haunting residents of a rehabilitation center has struck before. She's expecting to find information on a supernatural being, since she thinks it's related to the Troubles (she's right; it's a LivingShadow). Instead, she comes across a news article of the very first Black man to move to Haven in the 1970s. Dave sheepishly tells her it "was a different time."

* ''Series/TheTwilightZone1959'': Most episodes had only white characters, but there were definitely exceptions (one even had an all-black cast, something very unusual in the early 1960s).
