by Perla FarÃas. The series stars Gina Rodriguez as Jane Villanueva,
a devout 23-year-old Latina virgin, who becomes pregnant after an

the Virgin received critical acclaim, particularly for its writing and

fourth episode of season three, the series's on-screen title card was
modified, with "The Virgin" crossed out in favor of a substitution
corresponding to each episode. This mirrored the storyline, in which
Jane is no longer a virgin.Set in Miami, the series details the
surprising and dramatic events that take place in the life of Jane
Gloriana Villanueva, a hard-working, religious, young,
Venezuelan-American woman. Jane's vow to save her virginity until
marriage is threatened when a doctor mistakenly artificially
inseminates her during a checkup. To make matters worse, the
biological father is a married man, a former playboy, and a cancer
survivor who is not only the new owner of the hotel where Jane works
but was also her former teenage crush. In addition to adjusting to
pregnancy and then motherhood, Jane is faced with questions about her
professional future and the daunting prospect of choosing between the
father of her baby or her detective boyfriend. As the series evolves,
the issues shift as her child grows into a toddler, her writing career
moves forward, and her family members likewise develop independent
plotlines. Some of these plotlines including issues with immigration
status, health concerns, and lessons of self-discovery.
