I have been watching the complete seasons of Desperate Housewives for a few months now and find that it has been great to have allowed a Latin couple as part of the principal cast. Gabrielle (Eva Longoria) and Carlos Solis are hillarious! They confront their heritage issues while at the same time, try to make people understand how it is. Although Gabrielle is Latina, her mother-in-law, Carlos’ mother, has extreme traditions that don’t go in accordance with her liberal views. I love the fact that we are seeing more Latino representation in TV shows and in the media. It makes Latinos feel part of the community.
