At turns hilarious, scathing, and sweet, Gentefied follows in the tradition of shows like One Day at a Time, Jane the Virgin, and Vida as a series with undeniable heart. Read full review

The family drama and central characters are compelling enough, but “Gentefied” really struts its stuff in two bottle episodes. These standalone episodes are a remnant of the web series, which told each episode through the eyes of seven different characters. Read full review

A bold, beautiful show about people trying to play a game in which they don't make the rules. Read full review

Of the many series about immigration, gentrification and cross-cultural identities that have sprung up in the past several years, Gentefied is among the most astute. It only needs to trust that its cast will convey everything that’s left unsaid—and that viewers will read between the subtitles. Read full review

Once the series gets past some of its blunter instincts, it reveals some real nuance. While the stories of Ana, Eric, and Chris develop in interesting ways over the season’s 10 episodes, the most compelling storyline belongs to their grandfather and the intergenerational conflicts over Boyle Heights’ rapid gentrification.

Gentefied is a smart, warm-hearted show. And because it arrives at a time when TV is already home to Vida, One Day at a Time (which Pop TV rescued after Netflix canceled it), Los Espookys, On My Block, Alternatino with Arturo Castro, and more, it doesn’t have to function as a grand unified Latinx field theory. It can just tell its stories, and tell them well. Read full review

Feb 13, 2020

By the end of the season, the class and racial anxieties that the series explores get too neatly, and unconvincingly, assuaged. In taking up pressing, contemporary issues, Gentefied could fiercely challenge its audience on its core assumptions. It merely comforts. Read full review
