A comedy loosely based on the life of chef Eddie Huang and his memoir by the same name.
Inspired by a true story, this comedy takes places in 1995 when 11-year-old Eddie Huang has arrived in the suburbs of Orlando after moving there with his family from D.C. Quickly they find out that things there are quite different than they are used to - for starters there is no Chinatown like there is in Washington.
Eddie's dad is chasing the American dream and opens a western food restaurant, while his mother struggles with the differences in culture between her old life and her new one.

My family and I LOVE this show. Giving consideration to the fact that it takes place in 1995 and is based on the true story of Eddie Huang, I give kudos to ABC for NOT being politically correct and letting it play out according to the time period it represents. I love the actors (especially the mother) and we think it is hilarious -- right up there with The Middle about average middle-class hard-working people. I hope ABC has enough brains to keep this around long enough to find its audience. We'll keep watching for sure!

Thank the lord for this show. it gives me an alternative to seeing a bunch of no name people on the voice go on to win and never be heard from again. but, on a serious note. I was around the same age as Eddie in 1995 and i lived in tampa. This show and The Goldbergs just really hit home with me and i am constantly laughing out loud at this show. i have been trying to get everyone i know to watch this so it doesnt get cancelled.

I've seen the show and one thing I can say for sure is that it's different. Give ABC credit for adding some cultural diversity to their schedule. "Fresh Off the Boat" may not be quite laugh-out-loud funny, but it's actually pretty good.

I gurgled out a chuckle, maybe twice. That was it.
At least there's no laugh track.
