This is the type of comedy/satire that I love. It was obviously very inappropriate, offensive and grimy, but it was used in a way to shine light on many issues of machismo that runs rampant in the Latinx community. Leguizamo becomes all these stereotypes so well. I think somewhere in the book he says that he can make fun of the Latinx Community because he is Latin and loves the community. That definitely comes across in this show. I really loved it. My favorite line is by Angel; "Don't play me 'cause I got more guts than a slaughterhouse."
