Some small changes could make anyone attractive, TV shows have lots of skillful people working on clothes, hair, makeup, lighting, you could search any actor/actress and find some ugly shots and some very good.
About the show, neuronormies fail to produce something relatable for us neurospiced people, it's not marketable, you could not sell to most western media some high budget show that is bland looking, boring and at the same over specific, detailed and carefully crafted.
It's hard to have real autism in media nowadays. They'd tag anyone too creative as as unproductive or too unpredictable and when they rarely hit success they get punished by being demanded more and more content, slowly normielizing it to get a bigger audience.
I hate the mainstream media.
