Ashley Garcia: Genius in Love

Is netflix adding reviews to their own show? Why does show have 10 star ratings??? How come that everytime netflix tries to make a empowering female-led tv show that the "super-smart" girl is foolish, boy crazy, and goofy? I was disappointed by the get-go and wished netflix would stop making stale sitcoms with weak leads about girls getting their first kiss :(

The lead character is the youngest MIT graduate and has two Phd's and her whole storyline is,,,about a boy. if i wanted a story like this, i could just watch a thousand other shows. the problem isn't entirely that though, it's that she's treated as a side character. the boy or other characters usually have problems and she's only there to help them fix it. i liked some episodes that actually focused on her, though. i don't hate the show, i just think they could do more with this story more than the usual boy crush storyline.

The characters are so fun and cute. Every single episode makes me laugh. Great young actors too. And Uncle Victor is hot :)

I really liked the "Latino theme", I think the dialogue is quite funny, although sometimes a little absurd, however the actors are good in general. On the other hand I think that in many series the Latino community is portrayed as delinquent, lazy etc. And I think this should change. The main character Ashley is intelligent and creative and her uncle is a famous athlete and musician, which makes it different from the other series.

The show is very flat with very rare but very flat jokes. I am sure the actors themselves wouldn't have laughed when they heard heard the script gor the first time.
