Filipino nurses get a shout-out in 70th Emmys opening monologue

Filipinos definitely got good lovin’ in the recently concluded 70th Primtime Emmys Awards.

There’s Darren Criss becoming the first Fil-Am winner of an Emmy Best Actor award, and then there was the opening monologue where hosts Michael Che and Colin Jost pointed out a preposterous little thing: There were no Filipino nurses on TV show "ER"! 

“Things are getting better but as we all know, TV has always had a diversity problem. I mean, can you believe they did 15 seasons of ER without one Filipino nurse? Have you been to a hospital?” Michael Che said.

Right on, brother! The clip's below, and fast forward to the 6-minute mark for instant gratification.
