One Day At a Time rescued from cancellation by Pop TV
June 27, 2019
LOS ANGELES (AP) There are more days ahead for One Day at a Time.
The CBS Corp.-owned cable channel Pop TV says Thursday its greenlighted a new season of the reboot canceled by Netflix.
In a statement, Pop TV President Brad Schwartz called the series both culturally significant and funny.
The original 1975-84 sitcom about a single white mom was reimagined with a Latino family at its center, a TV rarity.
Justina Machado stars as Penelope Alvarez, a Cuban American parent and military veteran, with Rita Moreno playing her mother, Lydia.
One Day at a Time was dropped by Netflix earlier this year after three seasons, prompting an outcry from fans. The streaming service said not enough people watched the show to justify renewing it.
