Jane the Virgin came to an end this week after five telenovela-inspired seasons of dramatic twists and turns, but also a whole lot of heart. The show followed the lives of three Latina women as they navigated the complexity of friendship, motherhood, marriage, and their careers.

Host Tamara Khandaker talks to Constance Grady, a culture writer for Vox. They unpack the cultural significance of Jane the Virgin, and why despite being praised by critics, it never achieved the same mainstream appeal as other shows of its time.
