This book expands critical approaches to comedy and representational politics on television with a Latina/o studies approach. It examines how the show uses Latina/o camp to reframe socially charged issues: masculinity and familia, immigration, drag and queer subjectivities, Latina sexuality, and a Latina feminist critique of the American Dream.
