Ali Wong: Don Wong (Netflix, 3:01 a.m.): Actor and comedian Ali Wong returns to Netflix for her third original comedy special, Don Wong, filmed at the Count Basie Center for the Arts in New Jersey. Just in time for Valentine’s Day, Wong reveals her wildest fantasies, the challenges of monogamy, and how she really feels about single people in the special. The trailer sets up the program as Wong gets ready to perform on stage.
Don Wong is her third stand-up special on the streaming platform after 2016's Baby Cobra and 2018’s Hard Knock Wife. She also co-wrote and starred in Netflix’s 2019 romantic-comedy Always Be My Maybe alongside Randall Park. Her collaboration with the platform extends to animated shows as well. Wong voiced Tuca & Bertie with Tiffany Haddish before Netflix canceled it way too soon after season one (don’t worry, Adult Swim picked it up for more seasons). She currently co-stars on Big Mouth.
