JLo to Produce TV Show About Latina Nannies
I’m not really sure how I feel about this one, guys. On the one hand, I think it’s good that Jennifer Lopez is trying to get more Latinos on TV by producing a show for ABC. On the other hand — nannies? Really? Is that REALLY the only thing Latinas can do (well, aside from being prostitutes or domestic violence victims)?
Personally, I’m kind of exhausted seeing the same five actors playing the thugs, gang members, gardeners and immigrants while Antonio Banderas gets to play all the sexy heroes! And then someone with money and power has the chance to do something different and she does….the same thing all over again. Sigh.
What do you all think? Here’s more, from Variety:
“Untitled show (known in some circles as ‘Nannyland’) centers on three branches of an extended Los Angeles family — as told through the eyes of their three Latina nannies. (Call it ‘Modern Family’ meets Lopez’s ‘Maid in Manhattan.’)”
Insert rolling of eyes here.
