Alternatino with Arturo Castro

Super smart and ridiculously funny! I liken Alternatino to Dave Chappelle's Show which made so much commentary about the time and is still super relevant today. Its so good to see gente talk about toxic masculinity, machismo, racism, the politics of today without being alienating and still being funny! So glad for this show and cannot wait for more episodes!!!

As a 40 y/o, un-woke white dude, this show hits all the right spots. Arturo and supporting cast bring laughs to an insane 2019. Please, please keep it up.

Paid for by Arturo Castro. I'm kidding.... "Arturo's one of the good ones." 😀 So good.

This show is consistently funny and clever. The writing is fresh and witty. I thought the whole show would be Latino jokes and I wouldn't appreciate it, but I was wrong on both counts. While many of the jokes are rooted in Latino culture, they are all funny and you don't have to be Hispanic to appreciate most of it. There are some jokes that will be even funnier to Latinos (like the passing joke about the aunt trying to use Vick's vaporub to treat her nephews depression after a break up). As a Caucasian I didn't catch this subtle reference until a friend explained that culturally Latinos tend to be big fans of vaporub for the treatment of colds, flus, fever, congestion, etc. It was apparently very funny to a Hispanic audience, but went over my head. The truth is I was probably laughing at the previous rapid-fire joke. Bottom line: you don't have to be Hispanic or even know any Hispanics to like this show and many of the skits have nothing to do with being Hispanic. This is a hilarious show for anyone and everyone. Do yourself a favor and give it a try.

The casting, writing, directing and production are fantastic. All I can do is highly recommend that you give it a watch.

When I'm not purposely watching something on TV and just want it on for background noise, my default channel selection is usually a Comedy Central. This show happened to be on when I laid down to fall asleep and as I was scrolling through social media on my phone, I glanced over at the screen and started to watch. I was pleasantly surprised by what I saw. The several sketches that I caught before the show ended were pretty dang funny and I found myself putting down my phone entirely and paying full attention to the show. To cut this short, I laughed quite a bit while watching this show and will continue to watch when I see that it's on. Hopefully this show finds a solid following and gets to continue because it's pretty effin entertaining
