Welcome to the First Gen Show Youtube Channel.

First Gen is a sitcom pilot written by comedian/actress Yvonne Orji. The story is semi autobiographical and draws loosely from Yvonne's stand-up routines and real life experiences. At it's core, First Gen is a comedy about a Nigerian girl who trades medical school for a career in stand-up comedy and the adventures that ensue after her strict African mother discovers her plans. It's a super funny and refreshing take on the modern day immigrant family.

The Goal of First Gen is to be sold to a major network and produced into a sitcom that will be enjoyed by masses for years to come. To help those efforts, the FG team will produce a pilot presentation and a Docu-series highlighting the richness and universality of the FirstGen experience: The humorous, the hearfelt, and the heroic.
