Ep 49 Chatting with Two of the Creators and Stars of the Hulu Show Creamerie!

You know we get excited about Asian representation in media here at the InfatuAsian Podcast.  Anytime we see Asian Americans in Movies, books, or on television we get a little hyped.  But, perhaps one of the best examples of Asian representation in media isn’t from America but comes from New Zealand.  Four Kiwi Chinese Women of the production company called Flat3 have been uploading short web series episodes to YouTube for almost 10 years.  , They’re mostly silly, outrageously funny skits depicting life as young Asian women living in Aukland.  But, in 2021 they produced an apocalyptic dark comedy on network television, called Creamerie.  Creamerie went on to win the best television drama award in New Zealand and got picked up by Hulu and is now streaming worldwide on their platform.  We had the immense privilege of chatting with two of the creators who produced and starred in the show, Perlina Lau and JJ Fong. Hope you enjoy listening to our chat it was a really fun time!

Watch Creamerie on Hulu!  Or on SBS Australia or TVNZ On Demand if you’re in that part of the world. You can watch their web series by searching FLAT3 Productions on YouTube.  Follow Perlina @perlinalau or JJ @the.jjfong on Instagram.
