Tomorrow isn’t coming for One Day at a Time.
Pop has officially cancelled the comedy series after four seasons. Cancelled Soon TV sources confirm that the cabler has opted not to move forward with One Day at a Time Season 5.
Could the series survive another cancellation, like it most recently did in 2019 after being axed by Netflix? For their part, Studio Sony Pictures TV plans to shop One Day at a Time Season 5 to other outlets, though insiders say hopes of another resurrection look “bleak”.
As for the would-be fifth season, here’s what it would have entailed, per co-showrunner Calderon Kellett:
“Obviously, we would absorb (the unproduced storylines); we have so many beautiful episodes. There was the one that Justina was going to direct, which is another beautiful religion episode, which we would love to put into Season 5 and give her that directing debut and also a beautiful script written by Sebastian Jones and so many other really wonderful storylines that we really, really want to do, in terms of Elena figuring out where she’s going to school and really what’s going to be happening to these kids, as well as what Penelope’s love life looks like now with Max, their sort of modern relationship. We have so much more to tell, and especially with everything that’s going on in this world, every day, I’m like, oh my gosh, Elena would say this. Elena would say that. Elena would say this. It’s just ripe with things that this family would be talking about.”
