Production[edit]

Development[edit]

On January 8, 2016, the series was first announced as being in development at theTelevision Critics Associationpress tour inPasadena, California,during Starz's executive session. The show was announced alongside two other projects based on Spanish-language formats and stories from Hispanic creators. The series, then titledPour Vida,was inspired by the short story of the same name by Richard Villegas Jr. Executive producers were set to include Marc Turtletaub, Dan Pasternack, and Erin Keating. Production companies involved with the series were slated to consist ofBig Beach.[25]

On September 13, 2017, it was announced that Starz had given the show, now entitledVida,a series order. Executive producers for the series were now expected to include Turtletaub, Tanya Saracho, Peter Saraf, and Robin Schwartz. Saracho was also set to serve as showrunner for the series andAlonso Ruizpalacioswas set to direct the first episode.[26][27][28]Upon joining the production, Saracho assembled an all-Latino writers' room — with writers who were all female-identified except for onecisgendermale and half of whom identified as queer. Similarly, the casting director, composer, and editor of the series were also all female and Latina. As Starz had already established a basic premise for the series prior to her hiring, Saracho continued to develop the project and sought to imbue the series with more LGBTQ representation saying, "They wanted a female millennial show aboutgentefication,which is thegentrificationof a Latino space. The queerness came from me. I identify asqueer,and it had to be there. "[29]

On January 12, 2018, it was announced at the annualTelevision Critics Associationwinter press tour that the series would premiere on May 6, 2018.[30]On June 12, 2018, it was reported that Starz had renewed the series for a second season.[31]The 10–episode second season will be released on Starz on Demand, StarzPlay and Starz app on May 23, 2019, ahead of its official premiere on May 26, 2019.[32]On May 31, 2019, the series was renewed for a third season which premiered on April 26, 2020.[1][3]On March 18, 2020, it was reported that Starz had cancelled the program and the third season would be the final season.[2]

Casting[edit]

Vidaco-leads Mishel Prada and Melissa Barrera in 2019

Alongside the series order announcement, it was announced that Melissa Barrera and Veronica Osorio had been cast as Lyn and Emma, respectively.[26]On November 14, 2017, Ser Anzoategui, Chelsea Rendon, Carlos Miranda, and Maria Elena Laas were announced as having joined the series' main cast. It was also announced that Mishel Prada had replaced Veronica Osorio in the role of Emma.[33]On December 8, 2017, the final additions to the cast were announced. These consisted of the castings of Elena Campbell-Martínez, Ramsés Jiménez, Luis Bordonada, Elizabeth De Razzo, Renee Victor, Adelina Anthony, and Erika Soto in recurring roles.[34]

Filming[edit]

Principal photography for season one took place in thePico-Unionarea ofLos Angeles.Though the series is set in theBoyle Heightsneighborhood, filming was moved to Pico-Union as residents of Boyle Heights raised concern over possiblegentrificationthat might have been caused by the series presence.[37]

Language[edit]

The dialogue in the series was written inSpanglish,like much of Saracho's theater work, andcode switchesin a way that is natural to many Hispanics, including Saracho. Though, as Saracho's background is Texan rather than Californian, members of the writers' room fromEastside Los Angelesensured that the terms were true to the characters and not skewed by Spanglish more natural to Americans ofCubanandPuerto Ricanbackgrounds.[38]

Release[edit]

Marketing[edit]

The first teaser trailer was released on February 8, 2018.[39]On March 10, Starz opened the "Starz Sensory House" at the annualSouth by Southwest Film FestivalinAustin, Texas.The "sensory house" featured a multitude of screens playing the trailers for both new shows on a loop.

One such cocktail based onVidaincluded the "Chingonia", a mix of Blanco tequila, vermouth, aloe, white wine, and garnished with basil and cucumber. A musical element was also included through the all-female DJ collective Chulita Vinyl Club that performed. The Starz Sensory House was located at 88 Rainey Street in Austin and operated until March 12.[40]

Reception[edit]

Critical response[edit]

The first season received a positive response from critics upon its premiere. On thereview aggregationwebsiteRotten Tomatoes,the series holds a 100% approval rating, the first season has an average rating of 8.06 out of 10, based on 39 reviews. The website's critical consensus for season one reads, "Vidaexplores familiar familial ground from a fresh perspective to create an earnest and heartfelt take on identity and what it means to belong. "[43]Metacritic,which uses a weighted average, assigned the series a score of 75 out of 100 based on 12 critics, indicating "generally favorable reviews".[44]

In a positive review,Vox'sCaroline Framkeawarded the series four "V" s out of five and praised the performances saying, "Every actor onVidais great; Barrera's performance in particular blooms with searing clarity as Lyn is forced to face her own reckless choices. But it's Prada's Emma who becomes both the backbone and the beating heart of Vida as she grapples with her mother's truth and the painful reality of learning it too late. "[45]In a further approving editorial,Entertainment Weekly's Kristen Baldwin gave the series a "B" grade and commended it saying, "Vidais, remarkably, still a rarity on English-language TV: A show about Latinos made by a Latino. But the show's themes — gentrification, generational bias, and the surreal disconnect of returning to your childhood home after forging a new identity elsewhere — are universal, andVidaclips along nicely thanks to strong performances, including Chelsea Rendon's fierce and funny portrayal of guerrilla activist Marisol, and Prada's composed intensity as Emma. "[46]In a similarly enthusiastic critique,Deadline Hollywood's Dominic Patten complimented the series saying, "From its opening episode helmed by Alonso Ruizpalacios, the half-hour series also rejects barriers, slaps stereotypes silly and triumphantly spotlights several worlds you may not know that well but are vital parts of the cultural fabric of our time and country."[47]
