In case you did not know this, Gloria Estefan sings the reworked theme song for Netflix’s remake of One Day at a Time. But for the third season, they are changing things up. The Cuban born singer announced today that she will guest star on the fan favorite sitcom about a Cuban-American family living in Los Angeles.
The Conga singer will be playing Mirtha, Lydia’s (Rita Moreno) baby sister and arch-nemesis. I can totally see that because her and her TV niece Justina Machado have a lot of similarities between them. Plus, I can see Estefan having a lot of fun with this role.
This was not the only big casting announcement made by Netflix today. They also revealed that Jennifer Aniston and Adam Sandler will be working together on their 2019 feature Murder Mystery. The two worked together in 2011’s Just Go With It,
The movie is being described as, “When a NYC cop (Sandler) finally takes his wife (Aniston) on a long promised European trip, a chance meeting on the flight with a mysterious man (Luke Evans) gets them invited to an intimate family gathering on the Super Yacht of elderly billionaire Malcolm Quince. When Quince is murdered, they become the prime suspects in a modern day whodunit.”
I have a feeling this will be the first of many endeavors between Netflix and Aniston.

Fox made the ungodly decision to cancel Lucifer and today Netflix righted that wrong. That’s right, Netflix made a pact with the devil, literally!
Actually, now that I think about it, that could explain Netflix’s success? I wonder what else they signed away to the Devil because it is worth all of their sacrifices.
Seriously though, this fan is in heaven and cannot wait to see what is in store for season 4 after that devilishly good season finale and follow-up episodes that did not explain that plot twist. Plus, they can do things they could not do on Fox! I think there is a lot of good stuff to come and I am glad that Lucifer and his friends will live on.
On that note, here is what some of the cast had to say about the pickup! Tom Ellis or the demon himself wrote, “WE DID IT !!!!!!!!!!! Thank you to everyone for your continued support and love for #Lucifer I am so happy for all our fans I’m going to burst ✊😈❤️. #LuciferSeason4 on @Netflix wow that sounds nice. You fans made this happen. #LuciFansrock #Lucifersaved ✊😈.” Leslie-Ann Brandt wrote, “You fans are incredible. You did this. We are so happy to keep the family together. Lucifer on Netflix is back. Has a ring to it I say. Thank you @netflix and Thank you to each and everyone of you who fought like a demon!” Creator Joe Henderson added, “Thank you thank you THANK YOU to all the #Lucifer fans. You brought us back. YOU did this. So relax, take a breath, put some ice on those fingers that have been hashtagging up a storm… and get ready for more deviltime 😈.” And Aimee Garcia had to record a message for us fans!
This news really shocks because yesterday I gave up on the show being picked up and today it was saved. It is a miracle from, well not from the man above! Long live Lucifer!
For Josh Groban this has been the year of Tonys. He started it off by filming the Netflix show The Good Cop with Tony Danza and on that series he will be playing Tony Jr. Tonight, he is hostings The Tonys. Which is why Netflix thought it would be a good time to announce when you can stream the whole first season of The Good Cop. Mark your calendars for September 21st because that is when it will debut.
If he is not dating a Toni and releasing a song named Tony this year, then he is making a big mistake. Maybe if he did, then he would actually win one of those awards that he sang about not having tonight during Broadway’s biggest night. That and he could get married if he wanted to. Don’t you agree?

Dolly Parton’s song Coat of Many Colors became a hit Christmas movie on NBC, and now Netflix wants to do the same with eight of her songs.
The singer described the anthology as, “As a songwriter, I have always enjoyed telling stories through my music. I am thrilled to be bringing some of my favorite songs to life with Netflix.” Then she added, “We hope our show will inspire and entertain families and folks of all generations, and I want to thank the good folks at Netflix and Warner Bros. TV for their incredible support.”
We do not know what those eight tunes will be, and she has a huge catalog of singles to choose from. Since her career has spanned over 50 years (not that it shows because she looks better now than she has in the past) and the one I want most is PMS Blues. But I am a woman who can totally relate to it, especially once a month.
Which of her eight songs do you want to see go from the record player to the little screen?
Netflix wanted to see if the cast of The Kissing Booth was willing to kiss anything. To make it more challenging, they put a blindfold on them so they did not know what they were going to put their lips on.
Jacob Elordi went first and he got to kiss his costar’s cheek. Not the one he is dating in real life, but Joel Courtney. I don’t know how Courtney feels about his cheek being compared to a “tubby man’s shaved stomach.” What we do is that he likes kissing a hairless cat.
Next up, Joey King got a surprise when she tasted a Himalayan Salt Lamp. Believe it or not, Elordi did not like the taste of his next item and it was pizza. Who knew it tasted like dog food to anyone but a dog. Courtney enjoyed his cupcake, but King did not like her Sushi. Funny how some of our most beloved food because so hated when we cannot see what it is.
One thing we can see is this cast is so cute together, so that means their movie that is streaming on Netflix now is a must see. After you do, then kiss and tell me what you think about it.
