The show — which is co-executive produced by Deaf model and activist Nyle DiMarco — promises an “unprecedented, unfiltered, and often unexpected look inside the Deaf community,” according to a press release. “Instead of spelling the names out,” one cast member signs, “we use sign names based on our traits.”Several cast members then tell the stories behind their own sign names, which vary from having very blue eyes to being obsessed with candy. “You can tell if someone’s a Trump supporter — they will spell out his name: T-R-U-M-P,” one cast member explains. He added: “’Cause we all know that man has a toupee.”It seems like this sign name is generally accepted in the Deaf community.
