Gordita Chronicles is an American comedy television 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, part of a reduction in family-oriented programming on the HBO Max service.[3] The series was removed from the HBO Max streaming service in December 2022.[4]
