Melvin Mar ("Fresh Off The Boat," "Speechless," "Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle") -- Phil and David's brilliant producer friend -- takes us inside the thrilling and inspiring creative success story of the critically acclaimed Disney+ series "American Born Chinese" along with a few of his key collaborators -- executive producer Gene Luen Yang who wrote the classic Eisner Award-winning graphic novel on which the show is based, executive producer and series creator Kelvin Yu ("Bob's Burgers"), and executive producer and director Destin Daniel Cretton ("Just Mercy," "Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings"). We encourage everyone to check out "American Born Chinese" -- with its amazing cast which includes TWO recent Oscar-winners and previous "Naked Lunch" guests, Michelle Yeoh and Key Huy Quan -- on Disney+ -- and currently you can also discover this great new series on Hulu, Roku and YouTube.
