Fresh off the boat.
Thought I would blog about my latest series fix. Ever since the trailers came out last year, I’ve been pretty excited to watch this. Firstly, it gained a huge attention for having a full all asian cast in this US series. Something that probably would’t matter a lot to everyone, but if you’re in the media, I think it does mark the start of something new.
But anyway, this sitcom is titled Fresh off the Boat. This story was based on Eddie Huang‘s real life story, and it depicts a typical immigrant family that moves over to another country and the different struggles with the culture and people.
I didn’t exactly grew up in a different culture, but I do know a couple of friends and family who did. Even so, I was still able to relate to quite a few situations in there and it’s hilarious to see how they portrayed the different situations, some really embarrassing in it.
Funny how we were talking about technology and culture just before this post. Without the Internet, I would have never been able to watch it unless I was in America.
Watch it here if you are interested!
