Selena: The Series is a biographical drama web television series based on the life and career of Selena Quintanilla, the legendary Mexican-American singer and songwriter, who rose to fame in the 1990s. The show premiered on Netflix in December 2020, and it consists of two seasons, each with nine episodes.

The series follows Selena's journey from her childhood in Corpus Christi, Texas, to her rise to fame as a music icon, as well as her personal and family struggles along the way. The show is divided into two timelines, with the first season focusing on Selena's childhood and early career, and the second season exploring her rise to fame and tragic death.

The show stars Christian Serratos as Selena, Gabriel Chavarria as her older brother and manager A.B. Quintanilla, and Ricardo Chavira as their father Abraham Quintanilla. Serratos delivers a powerhouse performance as Selena, bringing the singer's charisma, talent, and spirit to life on screen. Chavarria and Chavira also give excellent performances, portraying the complex dynamics of the Quintanilla family and their role in Selena's career.

One of the strengths of Selena: The Series is its attention to detail and authenticity. From the costumes to the music, the show captures the essence of Selena's style and the Tejano music scene of the 1990s. The show also features new recordings of Selena's music, performed by Serratos and the rest of the cast.

Another aspect that makes Selena: The Series standout is its exploration of Selena's cultural identity and the challenges she faced as a Mexican-American artist trying to break into the mainstream music industry. The show also delves into the impact that Selena had on the Latino community, and her legacy as a trailblazer and icon.

Overall, Selena: The Series is a heartfelt and well-crafted tribute to one of the most beloved and influential music icons of our time. The show is a must-watch for fans of Selena's music, as well as anyone interested in the cultural and social impact of Latino music and identity.
