Cast and Characters[edit | edit source]
Note: all cast members play themselves in the series.
White[edit | edit source]

Yellow[edit | edit source]
The successful cousin of White, he is a businessman in South Korea and during most of Season 1 and 2 he is under the influence of marijuana.

The nigger of the show who just can't seem to catch a brake, he is constantly looking for a job( and getting it) but losses his jobs due to funny circumstances. The group never pays attention to him or is even aware of his existence due to them always walking on him even though he has saved the life of White at least twice in every episode.

White and Green's seven children.
Reception[edit | edit source]
Praised for its exceedingly realistic graphics and artistic usage of still images to portray complex issues on global interrelationships and quantum electrodynamics, this show has been watched by everyone. This show is so popular that it will interrupt any show on TV whenever a new episode comes out. Indeed, this show is so powerful that anyone who sits through an entire episode will sympathize with the main characters by feeling great amounts of pain and suffering to the ear, the eyes, and eventually the brain. You would have to be made of stone not to feel anything as you are hypnotised by the monotonic theme music and bright colours.
Some people claim that this is not a show, and instead will switch channels immediately. However, these people are simply ignorant about daily issues threatening mankind, and are deemed "normal people". Poor reception of the show in the distant past was primarily attributed to weak signal strength and bent antennas.

Digital Television[edit | edit source]
In 2009, the arrival of digital television mostly fazed out Color Bars, replacing it instead with what some TV engineers referred to as "more stable shows", such as House, Friends, and Lost.
