Here's a preview of Friday's episode of Fresh Off The Boat titled, "The Hand that Sits the Cradle."

"The Hand that Sits the Cradle"

When Jessica offers to help out an exhausted new mother Honey with Zuo Yue Zi- which means "sitting the month" taking care of her. Honey begins to realize that 30 days of having to abide by Jessica's strict rules and dietary regimen could leave her more harried then she already is. Meanwhile, after watching "Pumping Iron," Eddie and Emery attempt to put together a workout toutine in order to buff themselves up. And Louis tries to bond  more with Evan, who is a die-hard "mommy guy."

Fresh Flashback Friday: Fresh Off the Boat "Fresh Off the RV" Season Premiere



The season premiere of Fresh Off the Boat mainly brought back Flashback Fridays.

After Honey gave birth to a baby girl; Jessica does a book signing at a bookstore. But it turns into a failure as Harry Potter came out the same day. Louis buys an RV from Kareem Abdul-Jabbar; thinking that it would be great to go with Jessica on her press tour as a family. Later Jessica tells Louis about the book; she decides to take the RV with the family with Louis.

Nicole is leaving to New York and Eddie isn't quite coming to grips on the news. Thinking that things are going to be find; it's not as he's been going through the moods. Just as Jessica was about to tell the family the news about her book; she decides to use Eddie's excuse to cancel the trip for his broken heart. Eddie tells Nicole how much he'll miss her; as to her as well.

"Fresh Off the RV" was a good and solid episode opener. For the kickoff TIGF, it brought back some of the classic shows from the theme to Full House with the Huangs in the RV to Jaleel White (Family Matters) as the car salesman at Kareem's car lot. What better way to ruin Jessica's book would have to be the Harry Potter novels. I thought that was just hilarious and yet heartbreaking. Both Constance Wu and Hudson Yang put a really good performance. 

Overall, I give this episode a 8.5/10.

Life Changes: This Is Us "A Philadelphia Story"


"A Philadelphia Story" was another powerful, inspirational episode that dives into life's changes. Whether it's from Rebecca dealing with moving to a new home weeks after Jack's death and coming to terms that Kevin and Kate aren't okay . Randall trying to help a community center get some much needed repairs. But also seeing his younger self making the decision to not go to college after Jack's death.

From William (played by Emmy winner Ron Cephas Jones) being an inspiration to a new resident, Chi Chi (played by Yetide Badaki), at his apartment complex and finding another way to breathe new life thanks to her as he did the same for her.

To even Kate, Toby and Rebecca's discussion (if you would call that) about IVF. With Kate and Toby starting their IVF, Rebecca learns and thinks that they haven't thought of other options. Kate explains to her that she wants to have a child that has Toby, her and Jack's face. And not to mention that she's the only one that can have that. That gets Kevin into thinking about it and tells Randall, when he gets to Kevin's movie premiere, about it. After hearing what Kate had said about being the only one that can bring a piece of dad into the world, Randall looked at her with some confusion and concerns.

I enjoyed this episode from beginning to the end. This was a well-performed episode from Ron Cephas Jones to Chrissy Metz and Mandy Moore. But Niles Fitch, playing 17 year old Randall, that stole the episode as  Randall. Overall, I give this episode a 9/10.

Oh man, looks like we got ourselves a John Q. moment coming. That pretty much what comes to my mind. When Brian Tee was asked about his favorite episode, he mentions this one as his best one since the show began. I can't wait to see this.

Seems that we might see Boden and Jerry butting heads. I think that Cruz is dating the lady that he rescued with the dog named Rizzo. Which is pretty cute I think. Go Cubs! Kidd is back at work, maybe to do some light work for now I think. I think that maybe, just maybe there might be a thing between Brett and Casey. I don't know I just have this feeling. But what do I know, right?
