I just started watching this show tonight and really liked the first episode so I binge watched a few but I won't be watching any more. I'm sick to death of politics. I am inundated and drowning in the constant barrage of news and opinion politics and I just want to be entertained and I was... at first. I don't want a message of a writers opinion on anything I just wanted to watch a fun show and laugh and you sucked me in and then you ruined it. I was having a great time. The cast is funny and Miss Rita Moreno never disappoints but no thanks.
... View MoreI am so pleasantly surprised by this show. It's so relatable for us latinx folk, it's progressive, it's heartwarming, and it tackles so many social issues in very realistic ways with positive solutions. This is one of the best shows I've seen in a while. I think everyone should watch this show, I believe everyone could learn from a show like this. I hope Netflix keeps this one for a long time.
... View MoreI really enjoy the show, it has fun stories and lovable characters, but stop pushing liberal agenda down Americans' throats. Why does every show with minorities have to be anti Trump and anti gun? Ridiculous.
... View MoreI really really wanted to like this show. I like stereotype ethnic humor and this promised to deliver. I'm a fan of Rita Moreno so got a kick out her ethnic role and her thick slightly exaggerated accent but she still made her lines intelligible. That is a talent. It soon went off the rails. The mother is a former soldier who is married to a soldier but is estranged. He went on another tour in the mid-east so she broke up the family because it was just so hard on her somehow. Hey, she was a soldier, she married a soldier. Now she is such a wimp that she rips up the family???? An insult to every soldier's wife (or husband) and a lousy message. Then her daughter is all into feminism and equality and standing up and junk. The daughter is smarter than everyone else with her social message and virtue signaling and she straightens up everyone else. Insult to parents.Then the mother decides to take prescription drugs for her, what? Depression or some such? Another bad message in that. Life is tough, it presents challenges. You develop strength and find ways to overcome and thrive, not dive into drugs. I guess it's another message thrown in the audience's face. The daughter has such a crappy attitude that she refuses a Quinceanera based on, well, being a little snot. But then her mother in agreeing with her somehow provides a reason for the daughter to have a Quinceanera because all she wanted was a reason to have one. It's was stupid! I live in an ethnic stew and saw grand possibilities for a fun sitcom. It did not deliver. Too bad. So we quit watching about 3-4 episodes. Don't need to see weak characters. Don't need to see kids smarter than everyone around them. Don't need to be lectured on social agendas. I'll watch re-runs of The Middle and enjoy good entertainment.
