      Audience Reviews for Fresh Off the Boat: Season 1

      • Feb 06, 2023
        This is one of the crappiest shows I've watched.
      • Jul 02, 2021
        Not funny. The writing is weak and vapid. The acting is lackluster. Not worth a detailed review.
      • Oct 18, 2020
        Funny, light, and enjoyable.
      • Feb 27, 2020
        As an Asian-American, I appreciate the representation on TV. Randall Park and Constance Wu are legit stars. Having said that, the writing, characters, and humor didn't resonate with me and I found myself bailing after a few episodes. The show didn't feel particularly authentic...more like a formulaic ABC family sitcom.
      • Feb 05, 2020
        It is a great series. It's about the stereotype of an asian families. Great Concept.
      • Feb 22, 2019
        This show is my new favorite! Constance Wu is amazing, but honestly the entire cast is outstanding as well. The throwback to the 90's in Florida is spot on, the stories are great and I can say, I've never laughed this much out loud at a sitcom in my entire life!! Love love LOVE THIS SHOW!!
      • Sep 08, 2018
        Best Episode wanting to join a Country Club. Funny part Asian Family owns BBQ Restaurant.
      • Apr 15, 2018
        It’s a terrible show. It’s painful how they portray Asian stereotypes in an effort to be funny, but still get it wrong. It misrepresents much of the Asian immigrant experience, and worse, sends the message to white, black, and brown people that some of these things are “funny” to us. It’s not.
      • Apr 02, 2018
        Randall Park and Constance Wu are awesome!
      • Feb 22, 2017
        Every Chinese-American or Chinese-Filipino family should follow this show. It's funny look into the lives of Chinese immigrants and how they try to blend in with western society in the 90s.
