For the past couple of years original programming has taking off on the web with Netflix, Hulu, Amazon, YouTube and others offering shows or series. Some are really good and of course some aren’t, but there’s interest in these new adventures. The ones that are interesting are doing well, like my personal favorite; Netflix’s Orange is the New Black now in its second season and renewed for a third.

Which brings us to Hulu’s entry last year of East Los High, a modern day cross between Beverly Hills, 90210 and Glee with a predominately Latino cast and crew–in front and behind the camera. The show creators are Carlos Portugal and Kathleen Bedoya. The show had an enough fan base to return with a second season of high school angst.
A few months ago Se Fija!’s Angela Ortíz got to hang out with a few of the new cast members of the new season. Here are some of the new and a few returning cast members; Rick Mancia, Alexandra Rodriguez, Vivian Lamolli, two sets of siblings Gabriel Chavarria, Jeremy Chavarria, Alicia Sixtos, Andrea Sixtos, Vannessa Vasquez, Tracy Perez, Rene Alvorado, Jessica Meza, Ray Diaz, Ashley Campuzano, and Danielle Vega.
The new season is out on July 9 on a computer near you. Below are a few of the interviews and trailer.
