Constance Wu who plays mom Jessica on Fresh Off The Boat was the first to come to the defense of Eddie Huang after a blog on AsAmNews criticized him for speaking out against the show.

Huang said in series of tweets that he barely recognizes his own life on the show supposedly based on his memoir. He said he was a victim of domestic abuse growing up and is disappointed the show has ignored that important, but dark chapter in his life.

AsAmNews responded that a large following of loyal fans do relate to the show and can see the stories of Asian Americans portrayed on national broadcast television on a weekly basis for the first time in 20 years. It bluntly stated, perhaps it was time for Huang “to shut his mouth.”

That lead to this retort from Wu in a stern tone Jessica would normally reserve for her mischievous son Eddie.
