I had never heard of “Cristela” before having to watch it for class. The first two episodes are quite comical and I was sorry to read on IMDB that the show only aired for one season before being canceled. An interesting fact about “Cristela” is that Cristela Alonzo, the star of the show, “is the first Latina to create, produce, write, and star in her own primetime comedy” (“All Jokes Aside,” 2014). Another fact about the show is that every single character is based off someone that Cristela Alonzo knows (Saraiya, 2014).
I think that the family is a good representation of Latinos for a few reasons. For example, the lead character is a strong female who works hard and is pursuing her dream of becoming a lawyer. Also, Cristela’s family members
