Disney Channel’s new coming of age animated series Primos premieres on the network on July 25. The summer is the best time to discover and explore aspects of yourself you you might not get the chance to during the rest of the year. Tater Ramirez Humphrey has big plans this summer until her mom invites her twelve cousins to stay with them.
From Emmy Award-nominated creator and executive producer Natasha Kline, “Primos” introduces Tater Ramirez Humphrey, an eccentric girl with big dreams, determined to find what makes her extraordinary. When her 12 chaotic cousins (“primos” in Spanish) move in for the summer, they help her discover her true self. The series is inspired by Kline’s childhood experiences with her extended multicultural Mexican American family.
