Yeah, Hudson Yang has really solid comic timing and has done what he can to make Eddie relatable and charming, but the character itself is just really off-putting to me.

I DIED at Jessica jumping on Eddie and simulating date rape with a stuffed animal. Constance Wu is a revelation on this show.

Holy shit, Andy Samberg's Chelsea Peretti impression is amazing. It simultaneously sounds exactly like her and nothing like her.

I had like Vietnam war flashbacks to the sound of the dial-up Internet connecting. NEVER AGAIN.

Bassem Youssef showing up last night doesn't seem so random anymore.

I'm actually really taken aback by how genuinely upset I am by this whole thing. I didn't think I'd be so sad.

See, I totally get all that…it's just so mind-numbingly DULL and I doooon't caaaaaaaaaaaaaare. I literally groaned every time we cut away from the A/B-plot back to the love triangle no one asked for.

Is it just me or was this a really well shot episode? I don't tend to notice technical things like that but a lot of the camera angles and shot choices were kind of beautiful and pretty atypical for a network show with really limited time constraints.

Aw, I really thought he'd stick around for the 2016 circus.

"It's crazy how much he flirts with me."

Because he sold it knowing full well it was going to be a family sitcom and then spent the rest of production essentially complaining about how it was a family sitcom?

I don't think that's what it did at all. I actually feel like the show tried to comment on how whack it is that minorities step over each other for white people's approval (ie. the black kid's totally justified response to Eddie coming back to sit with him after being turned away by the white kids). It wasn't a fully…

Teenagers get more self-conscious and insecure as they grow up?

I did read it and I fully understand and agree with many of his points……….but I still think he's a real dick.

I agree. The show isn't trying to be a cutting-edge, revolutionary cable comedy and it's really unfair to judge it by those standards. What it's trying to be is a heartwarming family sitcom on the ABC and by those parameters, I thought it was hugely successful.

I just remembered why the grandma looked so familiar. She's the shady bitch that cursed Lindsay Lohan and Jamie Lee Curtis in Freaky Friday!

This review seems a little harsh cuz I really dug it, man. It's got a lot of pilot growing pains but there's real promise there and I find the racial commentary a lot sharper and more incisive than in "black-ish" which often starts with a good point but becomes increasingly muddled and confused along the way. And I…

I'm curious about the extent he's critical of Asians who are 'white-washed' because by all accounts, he seems to have appropriated a lot of black culture.

Hudson Yang's dad is a pretty respected critic/writer for The Wall Street Journal and he's actually been doing some press for the show and addressing a lot of the controversy surrounding it. I really recommend reading some of the interviews he's done or following him on Twitter (@originalspin) because he's a bit more…

LOL, one of them is totally dead at the end of the season.
