All-American Girl - All-American, All the Time

All-American Girl, the groundbreaking comedy series inspired by the life of stand-up star Margaret Cho, brought an Asian- American family to a television series for the first time. Originally broadcast in 1994-1995 on ABC, the show featured Cho as the very Westernized Margaret Kim, a San Francisco hipster delightfully at odds with her traditional-but-screwy Korean family, and allowed viewers a comic glimpse of the culture clashes that constantly ensued.

Shout! Factory will release All-American Girl - The Complete Series for DVD next week on January 31st, 2006. The 4-disc set will feature all 19 episodes from the Complete Series and will carry a SRP of $39.98, but you can pre-order All-American Girl - The Complete Series at Amazon for only $27.99.
