¿Qué Pasa,
USA? is America's first bilingual situation comedy. The
program explores the trials and tribulations faced by
the Peña family of Miami as they struggle to cope
with a new country and a new language. The series focuses
on the identity crisis of the members of the family as
they are pulled in one direction by their elders - who
want to maintain Cuban values and traditions - and pulled
in other directions by the pressures of living in a predominantly
Anglo society.
The series is bilingual, reflecting the mix of language often heard in Cuban-American
neighborhoods - from Spanish in the home and English at the supermarket to the
inevitable combining of both into "Spanglish."
