Tonita Castro Dads

In the first part of the season, Tuesday was the day to catch Latinos on TV in dramas, comedy and everything in between. It still applies as we enter 2014.

  • Tonita Castro rules the roost in Dads, 8P on Fox.
  • Stephanie Biatriz and Melissa Fumero carry guns and make us laugh in Brooklyn Nine Nine, 8:30P on Fox.

Too Much to Cover: Latinos All Over the Dial on Tuesday

Leonor Varela

Stars, regular cast members, guests and more: ten shows, one contest, and a documentary all on one night, and all with Latinos in mind

It’s amazing how deeply involved Latino Hollywood is on Tuesday nights this TV season. Here’s the dizzying watch list for the night:

S.H.I.E.L.D., perhaps the biggest success of the new season so far, packs up and goes to Peru, and though there are no Latinos as regular cast members (yet), the guests for this episode include Leonor Varela, Carlos Leal, Anthony Dilio, and Celestin Cornielle. See just how super it is at 8P on ABC

Cote de Pablo’s Ziva is still with us–temporarily!–on NCIS at 8P.

Cote de Pablo

Christina Aguilera returns for The Voice’s second show of the week at 8P on NBC.

Tonita Castro runs the apartment (and the lives) of Dads, 8P on Fox.

The remarkable documentary Latino Americans concludes its series with “Prejudice and Pride, Peril and Promise” at 8P on PBS.

Melissa Fumero and Stephanie Beatriz may be the two sanest people (alongside Andre Braugher) on Andy Samberg’s Brooklyn Nine-Nine, but everybody’s still fun as hell. Sample it at 8:30P on Fox.

Miguel Ferrer calls the shots (or at least he thinks he does) on NCIS: Los Angeles, 9P on CBS.

…and then Sarah joins Monica Raymund and Jon Seda in Chicago Fire, also at 10P, but over on NBC.
