TV: Dummies Guide to Fresh Off the Boat
Posted on Tuesday, 17 February 2015
Fresh Off the Boat is the brand new ABC comedy based on Eddie Huang's (comedian, chef, and MTV's Snack-Off host) 2013 memoir.
The show is done in a similar style to Everybody Hates Chris, with 11 year old hip hop loving Eddie narrating his life. Fresh Off the Boat follows Eddie's Taiwanese family as they move from the comforts of D.C's s Chinatown to Orlando, Florida to open up a steak restaurant.
The entire family (grandma Huang included) have to try and adapt to the new culture in Florida. As dad Louis embraces the American Dream, mum Jessica struggles with the culture shock in their new home. Meanwhile Eddie and his two little brothers Emery and Evan have to deal with making new friends and trying to fit in at school.
The show is still very new so i'm eager to see how it goes, but right now i'm loving it. Episode 5 just aired so you can easily catch up!
