On this episode of Good Pop, we check out Netflix's new adult animation series Blue Eye Samurai, following a mixed-race swordswoman on a quest for revenge to hunt down four White men hiding illegally in Edo period Japan, one of whom might just be her father. Featuring a star studded cast of Asian American voices, will that be enough to propel Blue Eye Samurai to good pop status?

Chinese Republicans, a new play from Alex Lin
Coming to the Roundabout Theatre Company this winter, Chinese Republicans is a biting new satirical drama from Alex Lin, directed by Chay Yew, following three high-powered businesswomen who meet for lunch every month to discuss their latest career triumphs, as they’ve done for decades. But the group is jolted when Katie, a bright-eyed 24-year-old new to the workforce, joins to navigate the world of corporate finance. As each of the women attempts to steer Katie towards what they’re certain is best, they’re forced to grapple with how much they already have and are willing to sacrifice to climb the corporate ladder.
