Never seen the show, but from the trailer the mom just doesn't look the part. Like she doesn't look Asian enough or something, same for the father, if that makes any sense. Like I'm sitting here thinking, c'mon bitch I know you speak perfect english.

Personally although I can't tell if the father is Korean or Taiwanese I can tell that he doesn't seem to fit in with the rest of the family, hell even the kid and the mother don't fit for me. Having a hard time believing this is a family and not just 3 random people.

PS: Apart from ordering Chinese takeout I have 0 Asian experience.
Yeah, the casting is just off. No chemistry.
