"Jane the Virgin" has become my new obsession; seriously I watched all 2 seasons in less than 2 days. As I watched I realized despite obvious circumstances (being artificially inseminated), Jane Villanueva is an incredibly realistic character. Jane the Virgin is a show that will make you cry, laugh,and yell at your television all at the same time. The themes of family, relationships, careers, and friendship constantly are being discussed during the show. Every character has a distinct personality and story arc, making the viewer personally invested in all of the characters. Here are 10 of many moments that make Jane The Virgin a fantastic show.
1. When Jane fantasized that she danced to Toxic with Britney Spears, because we all have danced to that song on blast.
2. Every Rogelio moment basically, but especially when he became dramatic after being called dramatic.
3. Every time Rafael takes his shirt off or smiles, those moments make all of us have serious heart eyes.
4. Despite her pregnancy, Jane still has dreams and aspirations for her career. She is still in school, working, teaching, and working towards becoming a writer (all while being pregnant).
5. Luisa and Rose have an intense relationship, and the show treats their realtionship no differently than other different sex relationships. (Unlike most television shows that have a "token" gay couple)
6. Even when they aren't in a realtionship, Jane and Michael's friendship is one of the most heartwarming aspects of the show.
7. The show showcases the harsh reality of immigration laws, and how those people have to live in fear everyday. Taking time to touch upon serious topics, instead of romance or lighthearted comedy.
8. The time Xo called out her mother for slut shaming her, and refused to accept her mother's religious views as a means for attacking her.
9. The constant theme of family and strong independent women is refreshing for a television show. Not to forget that the show focuses on Latin American culture and traditions.
