Synopsis
Jimmy O. Yang: Good Deal (2020) is a stand-up special you can watch online on iFILM. It's an hour of comedy from the actor best known for Silicon Valley, and his very first solo show.
Yang mines what he's actually lived through: growing up an immigrant from Hong Kong, learning English off rap videos, dating women taller than him, and chasing a comedy career that horrified his old-school Chinese parents, who wanted a doctor for a son. His take on Asian representation in Hollywood lands as lived-in storytelling rather than a lecture.
Directed by Marcus Raboy, it's breezy, self-deprecating stand-up with no mean streak — made for anyone who enjoys jokes about culture clash and the family you don't get to pick. Stream Jimmy O. Yang: Good Deal (2020) online on iFILM.
