Cbs All Access One Day At A Time

Okay, listen up, because I'm about to let you in on a little secret: there's this show. It's called One Day at a Time, and it’s pure sunshine wrapped in a warm, Cuban-American blanket of awesomeness.

So, What's the Hype?

Imagine a show that's laugh-out-loud funny, but then BAM! It hits you with real-life issues. We’re talking family, love, identity, and everything in between. Think of it as a sitcom that actually gets you, instead of just making you chuckle politely.

It’s not just a show, it's like hanging out with your own crazy, loving family, but without the awkward Thanksgiving dinner arguments. (Unless you *like* those, then maybe it IS exactly like your family!).

Meet the Alvarez Family

You’ve got Penelope Alvarez, a kick-butt, fiercely independent single mom who's also a veteran. She’s basically Superwoman in scrubs and a messy bun. Seriously, can we all just agree she deserves a medal (and maybe a really long nap)?

Then there's Lydia Riera, Abuela Extraordinaire! She’s the Cuban grandmother you always wished you had. Picture this: dramatic pronouncements, religious fervor, and a whole lot of unfiltered opinions, all delivered with enough sass to power a small city.

And let's not forget the kids! There’s Elena, the woke activist who’s probably smarter than all of us combined. And Alex, the fashionable charmer who can get away with anything with just one adorable smile.

But Wait, There's More!

The supporting cast is just as amazing. Schneider, the building superintendent, is the ridiculously lovable (and sometimes overly enthusiastic) friend who's always there for the Alvarez family. Seriously, who wouldn't want a Schneider in their life? I know I do!

Dr. Berkowitz, Penelope’s boss, is the quirky, slightly clueless, but ultimately kindhearted guy who brings a whole new level of awkward hilarity to the show. He’s like the human equivalent of a golden retriever, and you can’t help but love him.

Why You NEED This Show in Your Life

Okay, let's get real. In a world that can feel pretty overwhelming sometimes, One Day at a Time is like a warm hug. It tackles tough topics like mental health, sexuality, and immigration with humor and heart, never shying away from the real stuff.

It's a show that will make you laugh until you cry, and then maybe cry a little more because it’s just so darn relatable. And hey, we all need a good cry now and then, right?

This isn't your average sitcom. It's a masterclass in storytelling. It's a celebration of family in all its messy, beautiful glory. Prepare to be hooked!

Where Can You Find This Gem?

Originally on Netflix, it then moved to CBS All Access (now Paramount+). Seriously, clear your schedule. You have some serious binge-watching to do!

So, there you have it. My passionate plea for you to discover the pure joy that is One Day at a Time. Trust me, you won't regret it. Now go forth and spread the word! The world needs more Alvarez family in its life.

Go on, add it to your watchlist now, because seriously, what else are you doing?
