After a successful run of the first season, "Fresh Off The Boat" is making a comeback on Sept. 22 on ABC.
The season 2 of the hit comedy series, which is based on the life of celebrity chef Eddie Huang as a teenager from a first generation migrant family, is likely to feature several A-list guest stars, including NBA legend Shaquille O'Neal and "Daily Show" alum Rob Riggle, along with its original cast.
It is reported that the NBA star will appear on the episode 3 of the upcoming season, titled "Shaquille O'Neal Motors." Since Eddie (Hudson Yang) is a well-known hard core fan of the basketball star, it is most likely that the young teen will finally come face to face with his idol in season 2, Entertainment Weekly reported.
Back in April, the show found itself in hot waters when its narrator and protagonist, Eddie, expressed strong disapproval at the way Asian Americans are presented in the show, which led to the rumor about the possibility of the comeback of the show.
However, the show runner Nahnatchka Khan has declared that there is no bad blood the celebrity chef will continue to be the narrator of the hit show, Community Voices reported.
Meanwhile, the promos the second season is already out which shows the Huangs on vacation, thanks to the success of their restaurant, Cattleman's Ranch.
