'Interior Chinatown' is a genre-bending exploration of Asian-American identity : Pop Culture Happy Hour
The super-meta Hulu series Interior Chinatown mashes up a whole bunch of genres — including kung fu movies and police procedurals — to explore Asian-American identity in interesting ways. Jimmy O. Yang plays a waiter who dreams of a more exciting life outside his close-knit community. After witnessing a crime, he has a chance to help investigators solve the case — and he soon realizes he’s more deeply connected to the mystery than he initially thought. The show was created by Charles Yu, who based it on his own novel.
