* LatinoIsBrown: Downplayed. Although the majority of Latino characters are black-haired, olive-skinned people, exceptions occur. Emilio, for instance, is pretty light (enough that he could pass as Anglo if he'd like). Teresa is black.
Is there an issue? Send a MessageReason:
Latino Is Brown has been tightened to refer to when all Latinos are brown, or when someone thinks they are. Single-character examples fit in Phenotype Stereotype and Averted Trope examples should not be listed unless notable.


* LatinoIsBrown: {{Zigzagged}}. Although the majority are black-haired, olive-skinned people, exceptions occur. Emilio, for instance, is pretty light (enough that he could pass as Anglo if he'd like). Teresa is black.

Added DiffLines:

* RuderAndCruder: The original ''Series/PartyOfFive'' aired on a broadcast network, and thus subject to relatively strict rules about sex and profanity. The 2020 reboot, on the other hand, airs on Freeform, which is a cable network, and thus is allowed to get away with more overt sexuality and swearing.

Added DiffLines:

* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: Andrew Nichols, the caseworker assigned to monitor the family, is upfront with Emilio that he is under investigation for negligence and may lose custody of his siblings. However, Nichols also makes it clear that he's willing to work with Emilio to help him maintain custody.

* {{Gaydar}}: [[spoiler:Lucia]]'s mom very quickly discerns that she's into women after just a single slip of the tongue, due to her speaking about one before in a worshipful way.
