[ # ] Netflix is no longer taking it One Day at a Time
March 14th, 2019 under Netflix, Rita Moreno


Fans and critics are obsessed with the reboot of One Day at a Time on Netflix, but there were just not enough people who were watching the sitcom that stars Justina Machado and EGOT winner Rita Moreno as a mother and daughter who are trying to make it one day at a time.

That is why today, the streaming service announced, “We’ve made the very difficult decision not to renew One Day At A Time for a fourth season. The choice did not come easily — we spent several weeks trying to find a way to make another season work but in the end simply not enough people watched to justify another season.”

Executive Producers, Mike Royce and Gloria Calderón Kellett, responded to cancellation with a message for their small loyal viewers. They wrote, “Last night, Netflix told us they are cancelling One Day at a Time.

“We had the time of our lives making this show. We worked with the
best, most giving and talented cast, writers and crew ever, as well as
the incomparable Norman Lear. So while our hearts are very heavy
they are also bursting with appreciation for this amazing experience.
And for all of you. All of you who told us how much One Day at a
Time means to you. We’ve worked on many shows, but never have
we experienced the outpouring of love, connection, and support like
we have with ODAAT

“Along with our studio Sony, we will be exploring other places One
Day at a Time can live, and with any luck we’ll find one. Either way
our three seasons will always exist and be there for you and for us.
In the meantime we want to thank everybody who watched.”

Since Netflix is the goto home for cancelled shows like Lucifer and Designated Survivor, it will be interesting to see if they can find someone to save the show that was killed by Netflix.

The news is not a surprise because Calderón Kellett tweeted a month ago that the show was in trouble and asked the fans to rally for the show. Which they did. Sadly it was just not enough. What is not enough for Netflix will hopefully be enough for someone else.
