Awkwafina Is Nora from Queens

Although it's not the best show, I keep watching. I think I just like Awkwafina, herself. The show is goofy and the grandma reminds me of a "mild" Madea.

It's not for the easily offended, but I got a good laugh and I can see myself in her shoes on different situations :) The humor is a little different, but good. It's more relatable for women than men, reminds me of Broad City.

I'm not sure I've ever related to a show as much as this. It's such a great show, and Awkwafina is just constantly laugh out loud funny.

This is one of the shows I've binged during lockdown and I enjoyed it more than I thought I would. The jokes are funny as well as Nora's antics. My favorite character is the grandma though, I enjoyed her Korean soap opera episode, that was very cute. Nora is a lot like a younger version of Natasha Lyonne's character in "Russian Doll" (raspy New York voice and all) and Lyonne even wrote one of the episodes as well as appeared in it. I can't wait for the next season. Definitely worth a watch.

I didn't know who Awkwafina was before I stumbled upon this in early 2020. A lot has changed since then globally and personally, Awkwafina herself is now in a billion massive films and I couldn't be happier because what hooked me into this was entirely her bottomless charm. Well, her and Lori Tan Chinn. Well... her and BD Wong and Lori Tan Chinn. And Bowen Yang. Oh and Stephanie Hsu. Just all of those. Nora is not a super consistent show but there's heart, laughs and some truly silly tangents which I value. I never expected it to keep going after she got gigantic - so three seasons feels like a good amount!
