I turned this show on during a free preiivew of the starz channel and let me proudly say that i adore what i saw this is a family that doesnt sugar code things yes they call each other how they really feel when they feel it this is what i call a true real family and the shows pretty funny as well be warned the show does contain graphic content nudity swearing even ocasinal family violince' but otherwise a very fresh and nice show

I was hooked within five minutes of watching, and it gets better with each episode. An inside look into Mexican-American neighborhood and it could be anywhere. From LA to The Mission in San Francisco to South Tucson and beyond. I can't wait for more!!!

At a time when few opportunities are available for Latino actors, I am so happy to see such a large cast of our folks. This helps so many to be seen, recognized, and to add additional credits to their careers. This could be a stepping stone for some and surely a way forward for many. I didn't know what to expect but watched because of the cast. I will continue watching. Congratulations for making this project a reality. We have too few victories on large and small screens. I applaud everyone connected with Vida. Let's be happy and encouraging. This comes from a Chicana in Lorain, Ohio.

Being neither Latinx nor from L.A., I cannot speak to the accuracy of the character portrayals. BUT, as a person of color, I'm EXCITED to see this representation on the screen! There also seems to be the opportunity to address issues like gentrification, sexuality and cultural taboos, being proud of your identity when it can be easier to dilute the real you in order to fit in, etc. These themes, combined with the day-to-day relationships the sisters are cultivating and re-cultivating makes me hopeful for this show's success. I'm also loving the food references, the switching between speaking Spanish & English, the soundtrack for the show - I feel like the show has been made with love for this area and its people, not malice.
