The co-creator of Netflix's One Day at a Time, Gloria Calderon Kellett, is producing a comedy at CBS, according to Variety. The comedy is in development from one of One Day at a Time's writers, Debby Wolfe.
Wolfe will write and co-executive produce the CBS project, which is a multi-cam comedy titled "Just Like Us." In the series, a widower takes in his teenage Salvadoran niece while still raising his two grown daughters, retired parents, and running the restaurant he started with his late wife.
This would be the first series credit for Wolfe if the project moves forward. WOLF has also worked on shows such as "Best Friends Whenever," "Whitney," and "Dog with a Blog."
Kellett co-created and serves as co-showrunner on "One Day at a Time" with Mike Royce, which is based on the series of the same that was developed by Norman Lear. The new version follows three generations of a Cuban-American family. The cast includes Justina Machado, Rita Moreno, Todd Grinnell, Stephen Toblowsky, Isabella Gomez, and Marcel Ruiz. One Day at a Time was renewed for a third season in March.
