At the end of last year, channelAPA.com posted the casting call for The Chin Chens. A teaser trailer has been released online for the Asian American sitcom. Here’s a synopsis:
The Chin Chens is a television show that details the life of a loving but unique family. They are unique because the family members come from different ethnic backgrounds. The father is Chinese and the mother is Vietnamese. They have three children, two of whom have chosen to “downplay” their own cultural identity in exchange for the American way of life. Like it or not, the grandmother is doing what she can to get the family back to their cultural roots. However, the inherent cultural difference between the parents makes for a humorous and educational journey in every episode.
We’re not quite sure what to make of this show quite yet. It feels more like Disney programming than network TV.
