With Love

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.

Great potential but you are constantly assaulted with many of the characters self-centered, narcissistic drama. Super uptight family. Not even close to being a comedy when, so far, none of it made me actually laugh. I'm most of the way thru the first episode and calling it quits.

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.

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.

Five episodes on the Diaz family as they celebrate the major holidays in one year. Unlike many Latino series it's not set in LA or Miami or NYC, this is set in Portland, OR. Parts of it get soap opera-ish but for the most part the writing and acting are ok.

It's not about drugs or gangs or any of the other Latino stereotypes that are portrayed on TV, it's about a family. I enjoyed the "Baker and the Beauty" more, but tragically ABC didn't renew it. Glad this series is on Netflix, it has a better chance of getting renewed.
