So I just read this article about Steven Yeun and Ali Wong’s Netflix comedy called ‘Beef’ and man, it was hilarious! The show is basically about two estranged friends who are forced to come together and compete on a reality cooking show, with a lot of beef (both literal and figurative) between them.
The article praises the chemistry and comedic timing between Yeun and Wong, who both give fantastic performances. It also touches on how the show tackles Asian American representation and identity, as both actors draw from their own experiences and backgrounds.
I personally love watching cooking shows, so the fact that ‘Beef’ revolves around a cooking competition made it all the more enjoyable for me. Plus, seeing two hilarious actors like Yeun and Wong go head-to-head in the kitchen was a treat.
Overall, it’s great to see Asian Americans getting more representation in mainstream media, especially when it comes to comedy. ‘Beef’ is definitely worth checking out, whether you’re a foodie, a fan of Yeun and Wong, or just in need of a good laugh.
