Along with FOX's "Last Man On Earth," Fresh Off The Boat is one of the best new network comedies of the spring and both are probably better than any network half-hour--allowing for "Jane the Virgin" genre wiggle-room here--that debuted last fall.

The cast of unknowns is terrific and the writing, overseen by executive producer Nahnatchka Khan (“Don’t Trust the B---- in Apartment 23”), is fresh, funny and mostly clean.

Fresh Off the Boat finds jokes in plenty of other, non-racial issues, and that’s often the bonus that gives you confidence this is a show with legs.

Somehow it still manages to find strangeness within its sentimentality. Fresh Off the Boat is unlikely to dismantle the master’s house. But it opens a door.

Having established the exaggerated and predictable weirdness of all white people, Fresh Off the Boat seems to have run through its one topic--and one joke.

The first episode focuses far too much on these stereotypes. On top of that, it’s not even funny. But what a difference a second episode makes.... The real difference between the first and second episodes, though, is not just that the stereotypes are eventually turned upside down but that the characters are no longer just those stereotypes.

Entertaining and funny. Showed a very real aspect of Asian-american life. Characters were unique and the show sprinkled in many references. Amazing job in featuring notable figures from American culture.

Fresh off the boat is an entertaining show, it may not be the most original, regardless it is still a good watch. The show has solid character development and entertaining episode plots. Some episodes are uninspired and some of the side characters are irritating but it shouldn't take away from your enjoyment. This is a worthwhile show to give some of your attention to.
