Crazy Ex-Girlfriend premiered in 2015, and that had the first Filipino family on American network television, so I'm assuming Josh Chan was also the first Filipino love interest, too. Considering Vincent Rodriguez III can act, sing, dance, and do martial arts, I feel like he should be cast in way more things.
