JUST ADD ALCOHOL: “兩個爸爸 (Two Fathers)”

My latest Netflix binge, “兩個爸爸 (Two Fathers)” is a Taiwanese dramedy series about two college roommates who unknowingly impregnate the same girl. Since clearly The Maury Povich Show isn’t a thing in Taiwan, the mystery woman skips town immediately after giving birth, bequeathing the newborn baby to both possible baby daddies. 👨‍👨‍👧 Hilarity ensues.
