I agree with another reviewer that the actors are what make this show. The storylines have all been done before in other shows and probably have even been done better, but this show is just so endearing. I like every character in their own right. It is "woke" and ignores some complications and conversations that would probably come up in real life, but the show doesn't go overboard about cramming it down your throat and I actually think it is LBTQ friendly, but can still be easily enjoyed by a straight person, because I enjoyed it. I hope for a season 2.

I'm halfway through the first episode. The dialogue feels stereotypical (in terms of sexuality-the way the gay character is represented, gender-women's main concern is getting a man and even in its portrayal of Latinx culture). The story is therefore very commonplace except with Latinx characters using Spanish words here and there in a way that will very conveniently be understandable to a mainstream audience (I'm Latina myself). Not on the level of rawness and realness of One Day at a Time, which I was expecting.

As another reviewer said, if this had been sold to me as a Hallmark-type movie with Latinx characters I think I would be much more pleased as my expectations would have been better adjusted.

It reminds me a lot of Mindy Kaling's Four Weddings... in the sense that it's a visually stunning tv show with a very conventionally attractive characters, an extremely conventional plot structure and a weird timing that feels slow and doesn't favor the jokes. Both shows are trying hard to be contemporary but lack any real-world authenticity in the portrayal of the characters.

Again, feel free to watch, expecting a hallmark or abc family (it does have some drama) type of tv show with very pretty people all looking for love. I might even continue watching with that mindset.

Five episodes on the Diaz family as they celebrate the major holidays in one year. Unlike many Latino series it's not set in LA or Miami or NYC, this is set in Portland, OR. Parts of it get soap opera-ish but for the most part the writing and acting are ok.

It's not about drugs or gangs or any of the other Latino stereotypes that are portrayed on TV, it's about a family. I enjoyed the "Baker and the Beauty" more, but tragically ABC didn't renew it. Glad this series is on Netflix, it has a better chance of getting renewed.

This show is show charming with so many engaging, attractive, endearing actors and characters. Gloria Calderon Kellett may have topped One Day At A Time, which I loved. There is a maturity and sincerity and ease in this show -- obviously a different format. I love this show and everyone involved. And Todd Grinnell just makes me happy.

I am enjoying this Latinx series. Each episode takes place on a holiday throughout a year. We are introduced to the Latin Diaz family through gay son Jorge, Jr and his sister, Lily. They traverse through finding love while surrounded by interwoven stories about their relatives. It is predictable, but fun to watch during this holiday season. Five episodes fly by. It is well acted and I am happy to see gay and trans characters played by out gay and trans actors.

It's so feel good and lovely! The characters are compelling and fun, the storylines are interesting, and the actors are incredibly talented. Such a fantastic holiday watch!

I Love this series and I'm excited to see MORE! It put a smile on face during a season that has been difficult for me since losing my parents. And it's really healing and freeing to see traditions I practice being practiced on TV. THANK YOU!

The cast is awesome and the writing is great I can actually see myself in the older married couple and it is great to see the struggle they are going through and the whole family dynamics. I just want more episodes.

I love the joy and the family of this series - great cast and a fun story line. I want to spend more time with this family! I particularly enjoy how this series portrays the balance between finding new love - and prioritizing your family. And, great to see so many generations of actors on-screen!

This is a wonderful series to watch! Perfect for the holidays. I binged in one night and enjoyed every episode. Thanks for representing everyone! Your series is "real." This Cuban American princess gives With Love a perfect 10!

Do you like Hallmark movies, but wish they had more diverse minority and LGBTQ representation, was rated R, and was aTV series? Then have I got a show for you!!! This series isn't for me, but neither are most Hallmark movies. Honestly I probably enjoyed this more than most Hallmark movies. This site is fully if current humor, but some of it actually makes me laugh. The score is basically the same 8 measures over and over again and it gets old, like been on-hold for hours old! Like most Hallmark movies, there's no real conflict. Character A is worried character B is growing bored with them, but it turns out they're just nervous because they love them more than they've loved anyone else before!!! It's taxing to watch, but addicting.

While it could be formulaic, the characters, acting, writing all make it feel fresh. It's an adult soap with a Hispanic cast of people I could come to care about.

I don't know what show all the gushing reviewers here saw, but it wasn't the one I saw. I thought the first episode was mediocre: no plot to speak of, too many characters to allow time for any significant development, dialogue trying painfully hard to sound hip and clever and not really succeeding, acting at times embarrassing and awkward. The second episode was even worse.

I give it points for trying to showcase Latino culture and perhaps some for treating gay love as love to be taken seriously, but otherwise this doesn't rise much above bad TV. It was quite clear to me after the second episode that it was going nowhere, and I was unwilling to invest more time. Others seem to have found more to like here than I did. You take your chances.

Loved every episode of this show! So lovely to see representation shown through love, success, and joy. The actors are wonderful and the writing is great. Need a feel good watch? This is it.

Definitely a must-watch. It's so entertaining and heartwarming, and I was immediately invested in all of the characters' happiness. The level of inclusivity made me so comfortable and relaxed watching it, thank you to everyone who made this show happen! Well worth your time!

I really wanted to love this but the more I watch, the more it felt like I was moving away from reality! Nothing about this show portrays actuality. Too much meaningless drama and talk about nothing, felt like I was watching a bunch of narcissist talk about themselves. Also, season one, episode one is the worst acting I have ever seen.

Every stereotype and trope is thrown together into an incoherent mess. And the actors give new meaning to chewing the scenery-the over acting was cringe worthy.

This review coming from a gay man with a high tolerance for holiday rom-coms. Skip this one.

Another success for Gloria Kellett. She has a fantastic way of depicting the Latin community, so much so that I see myself and my family in this show. She's accurate and sensitive with these characters, who like the rest of us, are navigating relationships. I didn't want it to end as I was so invested in all the characters and their storylines. Binge worthy.

Great potential but you are constantly assaulted with many of the characters self-centered, narcissistic drama. Super uptight family. Not even close to being a comedy when, so far, none of it made me actually laugh. I'm most of the way thru the first episode and calling it quits.

This is the series we all need. Love. So much anger and hatred today for no reason. This show celebrates life and love across gender, sexual orientation, race, and age! Must watch for the whole family. I hope it gets a second season.
