Los Mexicanados

Los Mexicanados, known at times as El Ornitorrinco Español, is a Spanish-American animated television series that premiered on Kiddie Plus in 2022. The series chronicles the adventures of a young platypus, Callidrake Mederrin, as well as her relatives and diverse neighborhood friends.

Plot and Hallmarks
The show presents a positive and rich portrayal of Mexican family, language and cultures. This show centers on Callidrake's well-intentioned meddling in her family and friends' lives, ultimately creating new quandaries to fix. Her mother is from Mexico, and her father is from Puerto Rico.

The underlying message is that demonstrating decision making and social awareness skills can lead to a lifelong pursuit. The show is primarily in English, but it blends in Spanish words and phrases.

In addition to the titular character, Los Mexicanados deliberately includes Spanish cultural components in the episodes, making it important for the series to communicate culture, as well as language. From food and games to places and sayings, the show builds Mexican culture into almost each episode.

Reception
Common Sense Media calls the show "amazing" and said that the series has "strong diversity, community, and family themes".

Despite Los Mexicanados doing successfully well with young children, many parents have expressed concern over the show's exaggerated Spanish words and visually intense content, as well as the titular character's blatant resemblance to Perry the Platypus from Phineas and Ferb.
