Media about the series

actors and roles creators of the series Fosters

Broadcasting on one of the most progressive in the US family channels ABC Family could not but stir the public. Selecting the actors and roles, the creators of the series “Fosters” figuratively weighed a slap in the face of the conservative part of US society. They heroized the black liberal views of a lesbian, and even with the Russian name Lena. In addition, she works at school and educates “Latinos”. This will not only spoil their children, but also strangers.

Stephanie is no better. "Traitor to the race, and even able to shoot." In a similar tone (with irony, of course) spoke about the series at the beginning. Series abound in moralizing, which is organic for a series with teenagers. One of the central conflicts of the series was the relationship between Mike, Stef and Lena. They look at the world from different points of view, therefore they sometimes argue, but they are united by love for their children. Among the audience criticized the drama in the relationship of Kelly and Brandon. They fall in love, but give up relationships when the Fosters adopt Kelly. According to the viewers, they do not violate the laws of nature, therefore drama on this soil is bursting at the seams.
