WHY A REBOOT?
The Brothers Garcia received numerous awards, positive reviews and lots of publicity around over 50 produced episodes that aired in over 40 countries in multiple languages. It is one of a handful of shows ever produced that shed a positive, humorous light on a family that happened to be Latino.
However, because there continues to be a lack of shows that portray Latinos with a sense of normalcy, the mission behind The Garcias is to champion the aspirational family-centric values of the Latino community and to share these universal themes that will entertain, educate and inspire.
