While it may be called Selena, the series is really about the Quintanilla family's journey together. Beginning with the Queen of Tejano music's birth and following their various struggles and successes, this show will leave a smile on your face.
You could put me in drag with a wig and some red lipstick and I would've looked more like Selena than the actress playing her...I did NOT like the series...
The actress looks nothing like Selena way too skinny acts nothing like Selena.
Episode one was okay for an introduction. The show feels like if Lifetime had a really big budget to make a biopic.
It's an idealistic view, it has no low point nor introduces any of their big problems or issues. The actress doesn't look like Selena or gave me her vibes.
Not what I thought at all. The actress doesn't even look like Selena and her lip syncing is so off.
There's 2 points that rub me the wrong way with this show. As a Latino, I can't help but feel how the Quintanillas want to be portrayed as a whitewashed Mexican-American family who barely used Spanish to communicate with each other and the public and had little connection to their heritage.
That's pretty much how it went as I watched part one of the series. Super boring.
I got through the first episode but couldn't finish episode 2, don't know if I'll continue watching. It does show about their life than the movie did but it's boring.
