    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.

    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!

    More Primo Please

    This show blends serious topics, unique perspectives, familiar emotions, and the funniest moments in a television show. The creators of Primo stuff a lot of great moments into a short runtime. I had to rewatch the series twice to catch more jokes.

    Having a show that focuses on a high school student navigating young love felt a bit outside of my zone, considering I'm twenty years out of high school. However, the writing, casting, and acting kept me engaged and reminded me of my high school years and how they aligned with the show.

    My only ask is to continue this story. I want more of these characters in my life. I can't wait to see what's next.

    Delightful, Wholesome Fun

    AT LAST Shea Serrano brings his charm and wit to the big screen in this heart-warming comedy series. The hilarious antics of the Gonzalez family will keep audiences of all ages entertained. For me, the uncles are the stars of the show- each uniquely quirky and adorable without feeling too over the top. My favorite of the five truly changed from episode to episode! Drea and Rafa round out the family as the perfect mother-son duo with effortless one-liners wrapped up in a whole lot of love.

    As a long time fan of Mr. Serrano, I was delighted to get a deeper insight into his teenage experience and the dynamics of his big, beautiful Mexican family. The glimpses of the Spurs and Fast & Furious memorabiliaI in Rafa's room kept me giggling throughout. I cannot recommend this show enough to anyone looking for a funny and honest portrayal of a high schooler's attempt to balance school, love, family and everything in between! Now bring on season 2!!
