American Born Chinese Review: A.B.C It’s easy as 123
With everything in consideration, the show was fun to watch, after you cross the halfway point of the season.

Platonic continues to get better, and episode 3 is the best one yet. The dry, awkward humour in this episode works really well and we get to see more of the secondary characters.
Episode 2 picks up where episode 1 left off, although there is a lot less focus on the bar. The episode is really funny, and a great watch. Seth Rogan and Rose Byrne continue to put on a show.
Platonic is great, the show is both funny and oh so awkward, and it works well for Seth Rogen. Although we are only 1 episode in, Platonic is a great show in the making.
Digman! seems to get better every week, and episode 5 is no different. Samberg has created a show that started annoying, but has really grown on me and one I look forward to watching. The humour is dumb, and the plot isn’t all that deep, but it’s entertaining. As our characters flesh out, the show continues to improve, and I really enjoyed this week’s episode.
Episode 6 starts the back half of the show, and it starts it with a bang. Beau, played by Aaron Roman Weiner, is our focus this week, picking up directly after the end of Episode 5. Beau is unable to process the loss of his son, paired with his regrets about being a poor father, and it pushes him to the edge.
We have reached the mid-way point of Season 1 for the The Big Door Prize, and the over-arching story is still pretty murky. The show has been decent so far, not at the top of my list for Apple TV+ shows, but nothing unwatchable. Episode 5 provides more of the same, but it gets slightly better at covering more ground throughout the episode.
Episode 4 is an awesome watch, and my favourite episode so far. This is more what I was expecting from this show. The characters come together, and the plot of the episode is really interesting. It’s our least ‘archy’ episode yet, but it’s super entertaining.
The Fear of GAWD follows Digman and Saltine as they set out to find the Ten Commandments. Our characters meet a new mythological species as well as try to handle to seems of society coming undone. It makes for an interesting episode with some funny jokes.
The Big Door Prize starts of smoothly, with a first episode that introduces us to the main characters. The stage is set, and a couple of existential questions start to form.
