Go in from here and this series is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

What happens
¿Qué Pasa, USA? (Spanish: What's Happening, USA?) is an American situation comedy. It was the first US sitcom to be bilingual, and the first to be produced for PBS. It was produced and taped from 1977 to 1980 in front of a live studio audience at PBS member station WPBT in Miami, Florida and aired on PBS member stations nationwide. The program explored the trials and tribulations faced by the Peñas, a Cuban-American family living in Miami's Little Havana neighborhood, as they struggled to cope with a new country and a new language. The series is praised as being very true-to-life and accurately, if humorously, portraying the life and culture of Miami's Cuban-American population. Today, the show is cherished by many Miamians as a true, albeit humorous, representation of life and culture in Miami. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
