Administrator Toups Posted May 10, 2014 Administrator Share Posted May 10, 2014 Fresh Off The Boat: Discussion Thread FRESH OFF THE BOAT - It’s the 90s and 11 year old, hip-hop loving Eddie (Hudson Yang) just moved to suburban Orlando from DC’s Chinatown with his parents (Randall Park and Constance Wu). It’s culture shock for his immigrant family in this comedy about pursuing the American Dream. “Fresh Off the Boat” is based on Chef Eddie Huang’s memoir Fresh Off the Boat. “Fresh Off the Boat” stars Randall Park as Louis, Constance Wu as Jessica, Hudson Yang as Eddie, Forrest Wheeler as Emery and Ian Chen as Evan. “Fresh Off the Boat” was written by Nahnatchka Khan, who also serves as executive producer. Jake Kasdan and Melvin Mar are executive producers, and Eddie Huang is producer. The series is produced by 20th Century Fox Television. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted May 11, 2014 Members Share Posted May 11, 2014 Is ABC trying to be "edgy" with racist titles? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted May 11, 2014 Members Share Posted May 11, 2014 On second thought, ABC, just stick with the one-word titles. You know, before anyone gets hurt? Jesus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members ChitHappens Posted May 13, 2014 Members Share Posted May 13, 2014 Paul Lee done lost his goddamn mind! The mom is funny, but she belongs on another show! 1 1/2 eppies tops! For the 1/2 eppy, Obama interrupts for whatever reason, and we never see this show again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members miche Posted May 15, 2014 Members Share Posted May 15, 2014 ABC change the title but the creator did a campaign to change it back to Fresh Off The Boat, it base on his memoir. Here is the tweets from the creator http://www.policymic.com/articles/89295/abc-s-new-sitcom-wants-to-challenge-one-of-tv-s-biggest-stereotypes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
