Reception[edit]
In The New York Times, D. J. R. Buckner said that in Casa Propia, '[n]ot much more is needed for comedy than throwing these broadly drawn strong characters together' and that in regards to the characters, 'Fanny, Olga, Manolo and Junior are likely to live with you for a long time.'[4] He said that Prida 'has a good ear for New York Hispanic street language, and this cast exploits it so hilariously that at times even a viewer with no Spanish may want to set aside the simultaneous translation earphones and take it in raw: the grimaces and gestures reveal what is meant, and the sound is too good to miss.'[4]
