Gloria’s past life as a firing squad - taxi driving - supermodel - small town - pageant winning - ventriloquist - gun wielding -knife wielding person ,is just the best plot of the show
The show was mostly a 20minute string of setups and punch lines. The jokes were funny, but they accounted for about 4 minutes spread 1 over each act. The other 16 minutes was just dull filler, to me. So I appreciate these condensed digests of the show's jokes. I watched it for half the 1st season and then lost interest.
@@cakealesious629 that I know(Mexico) but it was just a couple of minutes like you mentioned. I meant Gloria's stories she always keeps telling about her village, how her family is cursed, why she is wanted in two states, how she learned to shoot and stories like that. I really wanted to see her in her natural habitat. I guess writers just decided to keep her stories for an ongoing storyline to keep viewers intrigued about her background
@@mattmayo3539 Really. If they mocked african culture in the us or Jewish the outcry would be crazy. It would have been toned down major. That show made it because it had two things people love. Racial insults and a hot woman
Exaggerated same as school violence in movies. Like look at bulling scenes. In my country we know nothing about school violence. We had no bullies at my school since group of them stole pencil case of one kid and he just headbutted random of them instead of trying to chase case.
American shows always exaggerate stuff about other countries for comedic effect. Me being from Canada we're still called overly apologetic light weights.
I'd like to call her the "Settled Femme Fatale" trope because well she has a lot of secrets and could probably kill you but won't cuz of the whole new life, new me thing she got going on for herself and her family.
The “bad cousin who teaches you things” bit always makes me laugh because in a large Greek family I definitely had *that* cousin who was an absolute hooligan, albeit a total badass when they were younger. I didn’t have older siblings so she was the closest persin to teach me some street smarts. It’s always fun to watch this ep when a bunch of my family so we can all side-eye at that cousin, who like Gloria, once she settled down and got married is now less of a hooligan but still a bad ass cousin who is definitely the person to call at 2am when you need to bury a body.
“The exotic stranger who just popped into our lives out of nowhere? I’ve had my suspicions about her for years.” Strangely the most lucid statement Luke ever gave.
As someone from Barranquilla myself, who happens to be one of the biggest and most developed cities in Colombia, I don't know if I should feel offended or laugh my ass off because this shit is hilarious 🤣🤣
The actress is from Barranquilla, but Gloria never specifies where in Colombia is she from, I know they stereotyped and exaggerates a lot of her Latin stories but violence in the 80/90s in Colombia wouldn't be weird, and the character probably would come from a dangerous small village
@@laurispinni4890 no, Gloria does say she is from Barranquilla in an episode. In 4:46 her sash says miss Barranquilla, so we know she grew up in a village near Barranquilla.
I think she is trying to show the stereotypes that people have towards Colombia and Latino women. I’m Colombian myself and have family there and I find everything that she says as hilarious .
2:38 "Gun to my head: Cheddar, Swiss, Gouda" ""As someone who has actually had a gun to her head, cheese is not what they're going to ask about."" 😂😂🤣🤣 I actually laughed out loud irl way to hard at this line lmao 😆😂
I love when tv shows just pick a character and decide to constantly have offhand one line references to their insane past (think Andy Bernard, Phoebe Buffay, Robin Scherbatzky)
Jane on "Coupling" "Oh, I love pretending to be another person. One time, on holiday, I pretended to be someone else. You know, I could get away with anything when I was my crazy twin, Jane." "Umm... But, YOU'RE Jane..." "Bbbbb... Long story, kinda stuck."
My Latin American family would get scandalized about the stories they hear about the US and wondered why we'd live somewhere so dangerous. Perspective.
Sometimes, watching the episode of Phil being afraid of Gloria makes me wonder how far back they had this episode or something similar planned. Unless that younger Luke is a different actor
yeah, lol esp the part where she gave em knives and told em to either talk it out or kill each other. that's exactly what my mom tells me and my sister whenever we have bad fights
Sofia I knew of since I was a child but Ed O'Neill became my tv dad. Had never really seen him act before and this show cemented him as one of my favorite of all time. God I will cry when he passes
I suggest watching Married With Children. He is the tv dad in that too. That was his first big hit series. This is his 2nd which honestly just makes him a GOAT imo
My family is Columbian/Puerto Rican and they can’t stand her b/c she’s exaggerating her accent hahaha. We’re thinking the producers love it, find it sexy and they kept going with it. But we cant listen to her here any longer
I have to say I feel bad for her Her tough past made her stronger but she didn't have to go through that hell At least she found a good family at the end
Is two cultures joining and her realizing how really abusive her home was and due to being single how much her kid was actually high functioning. That's why she talks to him the way she does. That's her lil man y'all.
She probably grew up in a cartel controlled area. And was courted by drug lords which is why she knows how to use a gun. And she might even have dealed once.
I started bingeing the series for the first time not too long, and I was everyone growing up slowly wasn't too big of surprise, but whenever I see the flashbacks and stuff, I'm like 😮😮 (especially the younger children)

And racist also
@@ajdavide2910 not racist. Just the reality of being from a 3rd world country.

So there is not one postivie thing they could have done. Seriosuly. Every episode. If she was black you think they would have done it

In my village if you didn't have one of these you couldn't call yourself a drog lord. 💀
What ep is that from?
the "I am the cousin" made me lol so hard. Also her favorite hobbie being "confronting the devil" gives Morticia vibes and I love it

Alexis Rose from Schmitt's Creek.
Jay's face in the interviews when she tells her stories is priceless
1:49 killed me. I was expecting the mother to be hiding something. At the very least a gun. But Gloria's exclamation! I'm wheezing!
She's a perfect example of "beautiful" people who can get anything and get away with anything .
For real. "No, I won. Imagine all this when I was eighteen."
As she should.
"Either you work this out or you kill each other "
The only thing I relate too

Same
Gloria has the traits of an action film main character that now wants a normal life.
As a Filipino, this is somewhat relatable
As a Latino even more. Most of her stories are so my family lol
yeah, we filipinos are considered the asian hispanics so im not surprised to some of her antics 😂😂😂
Indeed! AHAHAHAHAHA
Well i haven't seen any other Latino say this, but ¡¡¡Primo!!!
yeah, lol esp the part where she gave em knives and told em to either talk it out or kill each other. that's exactly what my mom tells me and my sister whenever we have bad fights
Gloria reminds me of how Faust lost his soul," please stay, thou art so fair."
Oh no you did not mention Faust 😩
Gloria was basically just a long audition for Vergara to play Griselda
Love how gloria dad is look like a lot Jay
That was the joke of the episode, how they could have been twins lol
Her deliveries tho 😂
Sofia I knew of since I was a child but Ed O'Neill became my tv dad. Had never really seen him act before and this show cemented him as one of my favorite of all time. God I will cry when he passes

In an alternate universe, Gloria Delgado and Alexis Rose met and outsmarted an entire cartel in Colombia.
