Show title is insensitive!

I am distraught that such an offensive title can still be allowed in this day and age. How can we still blatantly label our celestial neighbors based on the color that their surface temperature causes us to visually perceive them as? And as for the "Dwarf" part, I don't even need to get into that. I move that this show title should be changed to "M-Type Main Sequence Star".

I get the impression that you really thought Monnglum was offended by the title

Sarcasm doesn't translate very well to written text.

Dwarf is actually one of the preferred terms for a little person.

Really? I would not have guessed that.

How about The Cool Stars? Can't help thinking that the cast would quite enjoy being in a show thus renamed?
