EXCLUSIVE: HBO Max has opted not to renew 1980s coming-of-age comedy series Gordita Chronicles for a second season.
The decision comes a little over a month after the show launched on the platform to strong reviews amid a programming shift at the Warner Bros.
Discovery streamer. “Live-action, kids and family programming will not be part of our programming focus in the immediate future, and as a result, we’ve had to make the very difficult decision to end Gordita Chronicles at HBO Max,” a spokesperson for the streamer said in a statement to Deadline. “The series earned critical acclaim and a loyal following, and we are proud to have worked with creator Claudia Forestieri and our two powerhouse executive producers, Eva Longoria (who also masterfully directed the pilot) and Zoe Saldaña, to bring Cucu’s journey to the screen.
We thank them and the talented cast and crew for creating such a heartfelt, groundbreaking show that connected deeply with a very important demographic.” Gordita Chronicles is a rare streaming series reflecting authentically the experiences of the Latino community in the U.S., and the studio behind it, Sony Pictures Television, plans to shop it elsewhere as it did with One Day At a Time following its cancellation by Netflix.
