The Televerse #390- Spotlight on One Day at a Time Season 3

Netflix is doing its annual dance of threatening not to renew one of its best shows unless fans do their promo work for them, and irritating as that is, let it not be said that The Televerse didn’t pitch in. This episode, Noel and Kate talk through a truncated week in TV, looking at black-ish, Miracle Workers, the premiere of Documentary Now!, Supergirl, and the finale of RuPaul’s Drag Race: All Stars. Then we move over to the spotlight section and dive in with the third season of Netflix’s wonderful One Day at a Time. And now that we’ve contributed to your demanded fan campaign to save Televerse fave ODaaT, Netflix, we expect a season four. Take a listen, then reach out with your thoughts on this lovely and entertaining show.

We kick things off this episode with our week in TV, starting with the comedies, Fresh Off the Boat, Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, and I’m Sorry.

Then we head over to the spotlight section and dive in with Sarah Phelps’ latest Agatha Christie miniseries adaptation, Amazon Prime’s ABC Murders.
