Not Hispanic or anything even remotely similar, but Primos just makes me sad after I heard about all the inconsistencies. Because if there was proper grammar and spelling and not kids named Nacho, Fat (but she's skinny,) and Pussy, as well as the town name. Yikes.
Just lamenting because the creator, who is definitely Latina, said that she wants to make a show for ppl who don't belong. And I think it's wonderful, but she just did it wrong and guilt trips ppl instead of apologizing for her mistakes and fixing them. I think it could be a decent show if all those mistakes were fixed! Sure, the Hispanic family of like 20 ppl living in the same house is overdone imo, but idk! It's not too late to fix it.
But of course, Disney doesn't care enough. No one working on this show cares enough! The whole thing about people who don't fit in or have no representation is just platitudes at this point.
Or maybe they do. They did delete the preview, after all. Maybe they're workshopping it! But what do you think?
I just find it odd that a show made by Latinos for Latinos came out this bad!
(Latino is gender-neutral, right?)
Y'all deserve better!

yeah, I agree it would be an okay show if the staff would handled the situation in the right way. actually, latinos (mostly mexicans, as op) love see our ethnicities represented! Thats why series as Mucha Lucha, El tigre or movies as Nacho Libre and Los campeones de la lucha libre are really beloved media for us (specially for the ones who grew in the 2000s as op)
In my personal opinion, Primos seemed to be something like Big City Greens but aimed to the 2nd generation hispanic (going to use the word "pochos", as we call them) and what it was filter it seemed somewhat charming. But again, the staff didnt know how to handle the situation and made everything wrong
