Seasons

Season 1
2001 • 13 Episodes
Taina learns that acting isn't about action sequences and tough-cop one-liners. After a disappointing response to her Jennifer López-inspired tough-gal, Taina regroups with a portrayal of Joan of Arc. Thanks in part to encouragement from her friends and family. Her mother is played by real-life 80s pop diva, Lisa Lisa. Remembering when she came from Puerto Rico as a little girl who knew no English, Taina's mother tells her the new language sounded like nonsense. Her own mother's words gave her strength, she tells Taina, ""You're a Latina, you have strong blood.""
Season 2
2002 • 13 Episodes
In order to be a tough girl, Taina creates a facade and is asked to fight Big Teefa, a huge boxer, and loses both her cred and her looks. When Renee, Dan and Papito go on Battlebots, it doesn't go well and their robot ends up being destroyed.
