With Love

This show is show charming with so many engaging, attractive, endearing actors and characters. Gloria Calderon Kellett may have topped One Day At A Time, which I loved. There is a maturity and sincerity and ease in this show -- obviously a different format. I love this show and everyone involved. And Todd Grinnell just makes me happy.

Do you like Hallmark movies, but wish they had more diverse minority and LGBTQ representation, was rated R, and was aTV series? Then have I got a show for you!!! This series isn't for me, but neither are most Hallmark movies. Honestly I probably enjoyed this more than most Hallmark movies. This site is fully if current humor, but some of it actually makes me laugh. The score is basically the same 8 measures over and over again and it gets old, like been on-hold for hours old! Like most Hallmark movies, there's no real conflict. Character A is worried character B is growing bored with them, but it turns out they're just nervous because they love them more than they've loved anyone else before!!! It's taxing to watch, but addicting.

I'm halfway through the first episode. The dialogue feels stereotypical (in terms of sexuality-the way the gay character is represented, gender-women's main concern is getting a man and even in its portrayal of Latinx culture). The story is therefore very commonplace except with Latinx characters using Spanish words here and there in a way that will very conveniently be understandable to a mainstream audience (I'm Latina myself). Not on the level of rawness and realness of One Day at a Time, which I was expecting.

As another reviewer said, if this had been sold to me as a Hallmark-type movie with Latinx characters I think I would be much more pleased as my expectations would have been better adjusted.

It reminds me a lot of Mindy Kaling's Four Weddings... in the sense that it's a visually stunning tv show with a very conventionally attractive characters, an extremely conventional plot structure and a weird timing that feels slow and doesn't favor the jokes. Both shows are trying hard to be contemporary but lack any real-world authenticity in the portrayal of the characters.

Again, feel free to watch, expecting a hallmark or abc family (it does have some drama) type of tv show with very pretty people all looking for love. I might even continue watching with that mindset.

I agree with another reviewer that the actors are what make this show. The storylines have all been done before in other shows and probably have even been done better, but this show is just so endearing. I like every character in their own right. It is "woke" and ignores some complications and conversations that would probably come up in real life, but the show doesn't go overboard about cramming it down your throat and I actually think it is LBTQ friendly, but can still be easily enjoyed by a straight person, because I enjoyed it. I hope for a season 2.

I am enjoying this Latinx series. Each episode takes place on a holiday throughout a year. We are introduced to the Latin Diaz family through gay son Jorge, Jr and his sister, Lily. They traverse through finding love while surrounded by interwoven stories about their relatives. It is predictable, but fun to watch during this holiday season. Five episodes fly by. It is well acted and I am happy to see gay and trans characters played by out gay and trans actors.
