During an August 2019 interview on the National Public Radio program " All Things Considered," actress Poorna Jagannathan recalled the fact that one of her first roles, as "Dr. Sikh" on this episode of Law & Order: Criminal Intent, exemplified for her the uphill climb that South Asian actors often have when trying to get cast in non-stereotypical roles: "I often joke that one of my first gigs, I was called Dr. Sikh, which [isn't] even [a name]. That's a religion....So I've definitely come a long way."
