High-Key Book Club #58: One Day at a Time (Pilot, S2E1, and S3E1)

April 03, 2019

In the fist half of this episode, we're book-clubbing the pilot of the original Netflix show, One Day at a Time. We discuss the "reimagining" of the 1970s version, Norman Lear, the importance of diversity in the writer's room, and theorize about possible reasons behind the recent cancellation. In the second half, we're book-clubbing the first episodes of Seasons 2 & 3, some overall arcs of the series, the nuances of racism and the Latinx experience, and the differences between this show and other sitcoms.
