Loved the book “Fresh off the Boat”, so was excited it turned into a TV series that Eddie Huang actually narrates. Forgot the show aired this week so caught the first two episodes On Demand and am hooked.
Mom, actress Constance Wu, consistently brings everything in her arsenal to each scene, most notably in the pilot episode when she and Dad ( Randall Park) visit the principal’s office in Eddie’s (Hudson Yang) defense.
If you haven’t read “Fresh off the Boat,” do yourself a favor and crack that spine to enhance your viewing pleasure. In the meantime check out Eddie Huang’s thoughts on turning his book into a show courtesy of Vulture magazine.
