* HarsherInHindsight: In the episode where Juan and Pepe wonder if Joe is gay, Pepe says in all seriousness that if his son is a little confused, then he will find Joe a "female woman" to clear up any confusion, and if that doesn't work, then he will send Joe to a clinic to be treated with male hormone injections, and if '''that''' doesn't work, well, "Joe can start packing!" Of course, it is all a misunderstanding and the audience is supposed to laugh at how worked up Pepe gets, but throwing his son out of the house for being gay or [[CureYourGays having him "fixed"]] is not that funny now.
* RetroactiveRecognition:
** Creator/StevenBauer played Joe while credited as "Rocky Echevarría". Three years after the series ended, he appeared as Manny Ribera in ''Film/{{Scarface|1983}}''
** Creator/AndyGarcia appeared in a Season 2 episode as Carmen's fam boyfriend Pepe. He was credited as ''Andrés'' García.
* ValuesDissonance: Some jokes on the subject of race or gender equality have aged poorly. For example when Joe is at the hospital Pepe is told that Joe has a high white blood cell count. His response is to brag that in his family they only have ''White'' blood cells, as in, they don't have any African ancestry. Given UsefulNotes/{{Cuba}}'s demographics, that is plausible but not likely.
