Racist scene on It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia

“It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia” is a pretty funny show and one of the most viewed TV shows on Hulu.com. However, the Season 4 episode 1 of “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia” entitled “Mac and Dennis: Manhunters” has what we deemed a racist scene. The scene involves the characters Dee and Charlie looking for exotic meat and end up in Chinatown. And they try to order monkey in Chinatown. Aren’t we done with the “Asians eating monkey” jokes? WTF?
