Cristela Alonzo is the first Latina to create and star in her own sitcom. ABC's Cristela was based the comedian's own life as the daughter of an impoverished single mother in small-town Texas. Getting her show on the air was a dream come true. Getting canceled after a year was crushing. Alonzo comes back on the show to take us through her roller coaster of a year in television.
