Eva Longoria Reacts To ‘The Baker And The Beauty’ Cancelation: “This Is Bad News For The Latino Community!”

‘The Young and the Restless’ star Eva Longoria took Instagram on June 16 and criticized the ABC (American Broadcasting Company) to have canceled the TV series ‘The Baker And The Beauty.’

Eva Longoria, who is most known for her role as ‘Gabrielle Solis’ on the well-known television series ‘Desperate Housewives’ interpreted this cancelation as a piece of bad news for the Latin community because of the series’ cast composed of Latin artists.

Following to sharing a photo of the cast, Longoria wrote:

“Well I’m sure you heard that @abcnetwork cancelled @bakerandthebeauty yet another show with an entire Latino cast! This is bad news for the Latino community! Why doesn’t @abcnetwork give it more of a chance for our gente to find the show?!

Then 45-year-old actress called for people to speak over Latin representation on TVs:

“And ‘gente’ where are you guys? Show up and get loud. Representation matters on television! This was a sweet show about a good family! And one of the only Latino shows out there! We need this show to find another home! Show your support with the hashtags below and let’s flex our community power!”

Hoping everyone is doing well staying healthy and safe as most of you know ABC decided to cancel our show the Baker and the Beauty, sad… but the good news is that it isnt over yet, we are still hopeful and NBC Universal is shopping or show to other platforms such as #peacocktv , #netflix , #Amazon , #Prime etc… There are over 500 television shows on air, and ZERO latino shows on network TV right now, and only a handful on streaming. The Baker and the beauty is a well written diverse show about a Latin family preppers denting our Latino culture in a positive light. It pretty much is for every family to watch. It would be tragic if this show just disappears at a time when the diversity issue in our country is front and center. When the lack of inclusion is at an all time high as well. We have two weeks to find a new home for our beautiful show the Baker and the Beauty…. please help support us and bring attention in anyway you can to help us save our show… we love you guys and we are grateful for you! 🙏🏽💪🏽💋👊🏽😘 Please use these hashtags #savethebakerandthebeauty #renewthebakerandthebeauty
