    Quirky, heartwarming comedy is a must watch!

    This story is so good combining quirky, funny with serious, and heartwarming. The acting is superb with each character well thought out, deep, joyful, and each unique!

    The story is centered around a teen boy Rafa Gonzalez and his family, his mother Drea, and 5 uncles whom his mother raised since she was 12, Rollie, Mike, Ryan, Jay, and Mondo. Drea is the head of the family, and all her brothers adore her and their nephew Rafa.

    The uncles all have unique personalities and points of view that cause them to quarrel and yet always come together, supporting and loving each other while teaching their nephew about life.

    Their story will keep you laughing and watching.

    I am so looking forward to this series continuing.

    I wish there was more!

    I started watching the first season of Primo because Im a fan of both Shea Serrano and Mike Schur. I finished it in 2 days because it is so fun and funny.

    Great characters and lots of jokes, all centered on a family you just want to keep getting to know, what more could you want? I kept changing my mind on which was my favorite uncle, they're all funny and also all sort of remind you of people you know. This is all a testament to the writing and the casting of the show, which is top notch.

    My only complaint is I wanted more episodes! The first season delivers 8 episodes, which definitely leaves you wanting more.

    If you are a fan of family comedies I can't recommend it highly enough! Go check it out!

    Super cute!!! Just what we needed

    This series is really cute. It's a feel-good wholesome series with lots of unexpected funny one liners and tons of relatable moments. The mom is hilarious!!! I love her!

    I read that it's the same creators of Parks & Rec, and The Good Place so it has those easy, familiar, happy family vibes. Especially funny if you're from South Texas! The show allows for each character to shine but not over power one another which is nice. Some characters are silly and easy to laugh alongside with. Drea is a favorite. She's sassy and quick and her lines make me laugh out loud when I'm not expecting it.

    Definitely add to your watch list!

    Another slam dunk series

    If you are a fan of The Office, Parks and Recreation, Brooklyn Nine-Nine or The Good Place, the executive producer has created another series that has the same humor mixed with heart.

    Focusing on the life of a Teenager who's five Uncles make up the blueprint of what it means to be a man this coming of age story is something that keeps you laughing and thinking about life.

    It's got the classic cutaways that made the aforementioned mentioned shows classic. The young lead somehow reminds me of Tom Holland he's got great timing and presence.

    Millennials will recognize the female lead from her early days on Nickelodeon.

    Each of the uncles are crazy and zany in their own ways but ultimately try to teach their "Primo" about what life means and how to navigate it.

    Definitely recommend watching and hopefully we get a few seasons out of it.
