Filipino-Americans represent the second-largest Asian-American group (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filipino_Americans) (after Chinese-Americans), yet their culture is rarely reflected on screen. The CW musical-comedy, says Maria Elena Fernandez, has become "the first TV series to depict Filipino-American family life, with a large Filipino cast of actors, in a single episode." This week’s episode featured main character Rebecca cooking a traditional Filipino meal.
