The Philippine government is seeking an apology from the producers of the TV series "Desperate Housewives" for a racial slur made against Filipino medics said by Teri Hatcher's character, Susan Mayer, on a recent episode.
Teri Hatcher's character asked whether the person attending to her during a medical consultation "can I check those diplomas because I want to make sure that they're not from some med school in the Philippines."
