Kellett's post spurred fans into action, with "#RenewODAAT" becoming a trending topic worldwide. Isabella Gomez, who plays Elena Alvarez on the show, and Joe Manganiello, who guest starred as Nick, voiced their support on Twitter.
"#ODAAT fans, we need your help. We adore this show and the representation and perspectives we get to bring to TV. So, if you'd like a S4, let @netflix know! Get your friends to watch! Spread the word! #RenewODAAT," Gomez wrote.

One Day at a Time previously faced cancellation after its second season. The show was renewed for Season 3 in March 2018 following support from fans and organizations including the National Hispanic Media Coalition, and debuted its third season this month.
One Day at a Time is based on the CBS sitcom of the same name, which had a nine-season run from 1975 to 1984. The new version follows a Cuban-American family, and stars Gomez, Justina Machado, Rita Moreno and Marcel Ruiz.
