This season, ABC found ratings success with their new sitcom Black-ish and is sure to be renewed for a second season. How will Fresh Off The Boat perform? Cancelled or season two? We’ll have to wait and see.
On Fresh Off the Boat, a Taiwanese family moves from Chinatown in Washington, DC to Orlando, Florida. They open a steak restaurant and experience serious culture shock while pursuing the American Dream. The family members are played by Randall Park, Constance Wu, Hudson Yang, Forrest Wheeler, and Ian Chen.

What do you think? Do you like the Fresh Off the Boat TV show? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a second season?
Please keep the show! Very authentic, heartwarming, and funny. Reminds me of the Wonder Years. Underneath what may seem superficial humor is a real story about family values and remembering what our childhood was like.
Love the show! Great comedy and actors! Please renew for another season and more!
Fresh off the Boat is an enjoyable series and it should NOT BE CANCELED
Our family loves watch OFF THE BOAT. Hilarious, cute, and funny. Please don’t cancel the show. Look forward for reruns.
I love all the characters. Great family show.
Great show. You can actually watch with the family. I really hope it continues.
Great show. We never watch tv during the week but make an exception for this show. We always get a good laugh and look forward to seeing a new episode each week.
I think this show is awful and should not be renewed for another season. The show is not produced well at all by the production team.
No it should of not been canceled Another good funny show taken off what a shame
It should total be on for another season
I absolutely love this show and i think that the writing is absolutely ON POINT! The characters are great and extremely lovable. The morals in the shows are absolutely awesome and the underlining effort of this show is how great America truly is and how we are able to EVEN HAVE these open discussions without repercussion. The comedy is amazing and the acting from everyone is outstanding. Frankly if this show doesnt get renewed im going to be thoroughly depressed since this is a great show with great values, with great characters & great writing! Haters gunna hate, and some… Read more »
Brian,
Very well said, very well said! You are so on point & it would be ASHAME IF THE NETWORK WERE TO CANCEL, Fresh Off The Boat! Why? It will show the networks are CLUELESS in what we ENJOY WATCHING. BE SMART & ASK US FIRST TV EXEC’s!
My family and I really like it and think it should stay on tv
I think Fresh Off The Boat should be renewed. It is the only comedic TV show about an Asian family. It’s really funny and the kid, Eddie is into some pretty cool music. It’s great.
I like FOTB! Of course it appears childish because it is Young Eddie’s story. Great life lessons discovered with the most important one being Family. Yes, the mom is great!!!
I like FOTB. It deals with life lessons and what’s important in life – family. I hope it is renewed.
Well, I was gung ho watching the show’s first few episodes. Then the show started getting very annoying. I got very tired and annoyed rather quickly with Constance’s irritating fake accent which many argue isn’t even Chinese. Eddie’s character is simply ridiculous, maybe because he looks more like a Filipino every day and him wanting to be a rapper dude just doesnt’ sit well. All the other characters I am fine with, but I would’ve like to see the family struggle more to make ends meet and some push back with Constance’s character having her less annoying in general. Any… Read more »
It’s a tv show and a comedy at that you anal jackass! Would have loved to see how you would have analized the Munsters or the Adams family when they first appeared.
You may not like FOTB, but for being racist — you don’t think they researched this in front of people?:)
I remember reading that the only people that felt uncomfortable with the pilot were Caucasians. The Asians in the group were fine with it,
I have not seen Blackish -so I rally cant comment on it being racist; but FOTB is PLAYING into the stereotype — that’s the difference.
playing into them with them whatever, if as a white guy I said any of that stuff in real life, I would be fired. so if I can’t say it, why is it ok to be on TV? oh right the double standard
nemof, Why are you pretending not to understand that those outside any group are not afforded the same liberties as those within that same group. It goes for race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, religion, etc. It would be out of line for me to go into Staten Island and make jokes about Italians or Italian-Americans, as I am not of Italian background, or accepted as such by said group (and Italians are European/Caucasian). LGBTQ individuals often refer to those within their group by names that would be considered slurs (if used by those outside their community). I attended college with… Read more »
I like the concept of FOTB but to me it seems to be a little childish. A lot of jokes are aimed at younger audiences. I am Caucasian but still enjoy the show. The mom is the best
agreed, the show has become terribly childish and annoying to watch now. it’s lost it’s appeal rather quickly.
Good show, look forward to watching each week. Would be pissed if it were cancelled! Know a lot of people who like the show also. Constance Wu and her character are great. Haven’t seen it lately only dancing with the stars(which SUCKS!)
totally agree!
