After 10 episodes, notable acclaim and a little more than a month on the air, "Gordita Chronicles" has become a victim of an HBO Max programming shift, joining the ranks of shows canceled in 2022.
A statement from an HBO Max spokesperson read: "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. 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 Saldana, 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."
On Friday, show creator Claudia Forestieri tweeted, "Cucu needs a new casa people... *sigh* #gorditaneedsanewcasa #gorditachronicles"
