I wish that I could change the color of my skin; I would so go for RED, I LOVE that color! = D

@GadGades That's true, but few schools, let alone countries, leave off compeltely PLANETS, would send just any random-person for a major honor like that.Let's assume Earth sent a best Brain & top Athlete to make an impression & show our scope, but were ignorant of the way 'Brains' are favored. Doyle showed he's capable of being a fine athlete for the school in his match with Beef, but the series still uses him as a whipping horse. To me, while funny, it just goes WAAAY too far at times
-
@Shenruss THANK YOU! My point exactly. I do not like the message that this show was sending. it DOES make the show funny, but two wrongs don't make a right
-
@Shenruss Well you don't have to all that special for an away program or to study abroad. This seems more like a cultural exchange. The earthlings don't know about this space stuff so I assumed the earth has only recently been opened up. So I think this was done for good relations mainly.
-
@GadGades The only other option is this is some kind of 'probation'. You know; GH says we'll take both your best & brightest, for all their promise, and your absolute bottom of the barrel, because [1] we wanna be fair, and [2] being exposed to our advance techniques & outside of your 'normal' school system might tap into his potential, if not force him to be whipped into shape. Either way, Doyle is being SOCIALLY disregarded as well as academically maligned, while Aimee's put on a pedestal.

@Shenruss Maybe special allowance was made or maybe their standards aren't that high. Doyle doesn't get treated that badly directly, outside of Beef, He's just having such a rough start and constant bad luck that it piles on. If the choice was given to one school to choose two students, then they might choose him just out of sheer popularity, in the same sense that class presidents can be B students. Doyle might have been just a C-B student.

@GadGades Doyle may have been arrogant, but he was polite to Milo & TRIED being nice to others, Beef included. And even if the school 'sent him', Galaxy High could have rejected due to academic standards. I've never heard of a school sending a kid as an academic ambassador to another because he was 'well- liked'; he usually has to be gifted in SOME way. If this culture wasn't 'so different', then Doyle's being used as a 'beating horse' for no reason other than he's earthling, male & not 'bright'

@Shenruss No doubt that episode is correct, I'm just stating the what the show said when the introduced Aimee(which doesn't make sense either). That the boys outnumber the girls. no idea why they felt the need to say it but at the time. There might be more than one reason Aimee adapted better including her intelligence. The school was nicer, girls helped her out, Doyle had a bad attitude and rubbed people the wrong way. I'm just guessing though.
-
That's assuming they selected him as oppose to earth or that particular school sending their most popular(well liked) student. I don't doubt that school loves her intellect but does the culture? None of the students try to be particularly brainy... I mean most of them act and sound at or lower than Doyle. no doubt that appearances are decieving but the culture just doesn't seem that different to me.
