Fresh off the Boat is underrated

I never see anyone talking about it but my wife and I love it. It’s corny as hell but it has many lols too and also has that nice family values feel that I rarely see these days. Ironically, it feels like the show was made in the 90s/00s. It’s kinda like Malcolm in the Middle with Asians. Also, I’d bang the shit outta Honey.

100% agree. This and The Goldbergs.

The dad is hillarious and was Kim Jong in the interview. Constance Wu is clearly super hot and super funny.

Eddie is actually the worst part of the show. Even his brothers are funnier as well as his friends.

At first they tried to play it a little to straight but once they became a bit more zanier it really picked up.

I watched a few episodes when it was airing in the UK, but I thought it was rubbish.
My friend's wife looks the actress who plays Jessica Huang. They could be twins – the resemblance is that strong.

Tried watching it and thought it was awful after the first episode. What do you like about it? I’m open to giving it another shot.
Decent family dynamic. The father and mother are great.. as are their adult friends. I could do without the the Handy/son storyline, but everything else is enjoyable.
