Awkwafina Is Nora from Queens stars believe it or not, Awkwafina. The sensation who recently co-stars in Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings.
The 33 year old makes a tight series around young Nora, who lives with her father and grandma, in (you guessed it) Queens.
Nora's grandma Lori Tan Chinn (Orange is the New Black) steals every scene she is in. Some of her appearances in season one, I still rewatch to this very day.
Paramount Plus now have the rights to Comedy Central shows in Australia, so I waited patiently till the entire season dropped recently. The season concluded last month in the USA, however I did binge this fast within around a week.
All ten episodes easy to watch.
A third season has not yet been announced so one will have to wait and see if the series returns for a third run.
After a COVID related finale, there is plenty of new ground to cover with Nora and the Queens setting.
BD Wong is also wonderful as Nora's dad Wally.
There were some touching moments along with some real fun in the second run. Nora is a real odd ball but super likeable along with laugh out loud funny. Following another year from hell, 2021 is the year you need series like Awkwafina Is Nora from Queens. Please Comedy Central give us a third season!
