Fresh off the Boat - WWJD: What would Jessica do? - Review: Jessica vs Jesus

Dec 4, 2016

I'm so loving season 3 of Fresh off the Boat! The quality is high, the writing is funny, the execution is amazing and besides that little slip of common sense in the "Citizen Jessica" episode this season is one stellar experience. "WWJD: What would Jessica do?" was directed by Matt Sohn and written by Laura McCreary was a pretty much perfect hour which focused on my two favorite characters, Jessica and Evan.

I mean just looked at them, they had so much fun shopping together at Costco. And not only did they have fun together, it was a blast to watch them together. The chemistry between Jessica and Evan was so on point, they were perfect partners in crime/shopping. But Jessica certainly didn't anticipate for religion to come in between her and her favorite son. Evan wanting to explore Christianity fitted his character perfectly but Jessica's overreaction to it was pure delight to watch.


Constance Wu once again knocked it out of the park, as said in earlier reviews she peaks every time she plays the overbearing mother who can't let go of her son(s). Jessica's attempts to play it cool and be supportive of Evan's desires was truly hilarious, Constance's facial expressions tell more than million words could ever do. Evan eventually going back to Costco with Jessica was an adorable scene and the perfect way to end this episode.

Special kudos to Yeardley Smith (Dharma & Greg) appearing in the guest role of Marie. She is a wonderful comedic actress and I enjoyed her appearing in another of my favorite comedies.

Louis and his overly white teeth and the 5th Dentist puns were quite funny and a nice side story to follow the lead story. Ray Wise was a pure delight and each time the writers exploit his character a bit more it adds up to the show making it even funnier.


Surprisingly I enjoy Emery a lot this season. Forrest Wheeler really grew into the role and is more enjoyable to watch as he delivers the line written for Emery. He and Eddie fighting the frozen cereals and trying to get a win over Jessica's eat everything rule was quite entertaining and another great filler story to the main plot. .

Favorite quote:
Emery: When I have a wife I will touch buts with her every day!

The easiness and power within each episode of Fresh off the boat is a great motivation to tune in each week. And while my anticipation for next weeks episodes raises as you read this, feel free to share your thoughts on this episode in the comment section
