Gordita Chronicles is an American comedy series that premiered on the streaming service HBO Max on June 23, 2022.[1][2] The series tells the story of Cucu Castelli, a reporter who narrates her youth in the 1980s as a willful and reluctant "gordita" (transl. "chubby girl") whose family immigrates to Miami, Florida from the Dominican Republic. Cucu's father is a rising executive with an airline serving Florida and the Caribbean.
On July 29, 2022, it was announced the series was cancelled after one season. Sony Pictures Television plans to shop the series elsewhere.[3] In December 2022, the series was removed from HBO Max.[4]
Angie Han of The Hollywood Reporter commented "Like its heroine, Gordita Chronicles shows the potential to grow into something special — and also like its heroine, it’s sweet enough to earn our patience while finding its way there."[5] Robert Lloyd of the Los Angeles Times called it the "sitcom of the summer", writing "“Gordita Chronicles” is as charming as it is often obvious; indeed, one might say its obviousness is part of its charm. This is family comedy of a classic sort— with a few significant differences — funny and appealing and sometimes moving."[6]Variety called it charming but criticized its at times unclear tone.[7]
