ABC debuts funny sitcom featuring Asian-Americans

Diversity on TV takes a step forward with ABC's Fresh Off the Boat, which boosts Asians' scant presence in prime time with a sitcom about an Asian-American family pursuing the American dream while holding onto its own ethnicity.

It previewed on Wednesday night with two episodes.

"This is the story of my family," begins the offscreen, real-life Eddie Huang (on whose memoir the series is based), and you could be forgiven for emitting a weary sigh.
