I am not as deeply involved with #cdrama fandom as I have been with American #scifi fandom for several decades. So I admit I don't understand all the controversies that arise around #CDramas

Actually - some of the American SciFi fan drama escapes my reasoning, too - but I digress.

Anyway, in an industry where the (Cdrama) actors' faces have been routinely "cleaned up" with Computer Generated Imagery for YEARS, why on Earth would fans get upset with #zhanglinghe for wearing #makeup in a television show?

I'm not sure I want to know the answer to that but I appreciated the way the actors looked in #pursuitofjade - I couldn't see any indication that their faces had been smoothed with computer tech.

Okay, he was wearing makeup. Big deal. At least it wasn't caked on like they used to do in the ancient 1950s and 1960s black-and-white shows and movies.

Raymond Burr (played Perry Mason and Ironside on American TV) once told a TV audience that the makeup they wore for those black-and-white shows was green.

So lighten up, Cdrama fans - at least he wasn't green.
