The Garcias

I loved the original show as a kid so of course I just HAD to check out the reboot and I'm so glad I did. I'm 7 episodes into the first season and so far so good! I love that it's family friendly and they brought back all of the main cast. I'm hoping for a season 2!

The brothers Garcia was such a key in my childhood. I used to own one of those little VideoNow player things and watched the dvds religiously! Seeing all the characters I grew up with as adults with their own kids really hit home. Knowing Larry got to be an astronaut like he wanted hit me in the feels! Max is definitely the star of it all, he's amazing. I can't wait to see more! 1000/10 recommend!

Max (Oliver Alexander) is the one to look out for in the future. He brings some high caliber acting to the show. Something that seems to be lacking in some of the older actors from the original show. I predict big things for Oliver Alexander's future. Not sure of his background but it is obvious he is a trained actor.

Many of the elements of the show, even some of the more corny and stereotypical ones work well on the surface.

But I just can't put my finger on why the parts don't quite make up the whole.

Sometimes a show just doesn't have that magic spark that lifts it from good to great, even though what that magic is can't quite be accurately pinpointed.

This show is scrubbed clean of any real latinx experience. They are shells of characters. It feels like a Disney-fied version of what used to have more value. Sad.
