However, behind it is some really good tackling of issues. The family are Cuban, the mum is an ex military medic separated from the dad (who has ptsd and addiction problems). There are episodes about teenagers being exposed to porn, sexuality, racism, immigration. All sorts.
That does elevate it beyond your normal fair and it's worth checking out the first few episodes.

I used to watch that ages ago, but it's gone really downhill.
