This approach repeatedly elevates LGBTQ+ elements and contemporary social debates as core drivers of character arcs and subplots, shifting focus away from traditional family comedy toward explicit messaging that compromises entertainment value. Episode 2 dedicates significant runtime to a family discussion on consent and harassment prompted by Alex's Instagram posts. Episode 7 centers Elena and her girlfriend Syd secretly obtaining a hotel room for their first sexual experience, while Episode 1 includes Elena speculating about her cousin Pilar being gay. These plot points build on Elena's established lesbian identity and her recurring same-sex relationship with Syd, alongside additional LGBTQ+ speculation and family discussions across multiple episodes, turning the series into a vehicle for identity-focused narratives.
