i have noticed this too, especially in commercials where a blacks are playing a black family unit.
it is usually a darkskinned male with a mulatto wife and a mixed race/curly hair looking child.
i have never seen where the roles are reversed e.g a mullatto husband with a dark skinned wife.
i find this extremely odd to say the least
in addition when they need to cast a black token character in soaps it is always a someone who is clealy mixed race. i am talking about british soaps here, a mixed race girl with a full black guy and the rest of the cast is usually white.
examples of shows are skins/hollyoaks
the aussie shows are even one step behind where no blacks or asian are casted they have a white only policy
