it lasted a little too long for it's own good.The original idea had wrung itself out after five or six seasons.I didn't mind when Julie married,I even understood why she left, as far as Barbara getting married:Why not?But Ann remarrying was TOO MUCH!

The final season of ODAAT didn't exist for me because although I loved the show at first and remained faithful to it for years,when Ann re-married I dropped it like a hot potato.

Loved the early episodes, but hated when Max arrived...... uggghhhhhh and the other kid Jeremy orwhatever his name was was way too annoying

I think "the other kid"s name was Alex. What WAS that all about?Was Ann dating his father,his father died and Alex moved in with them?How's that work?????Never a big legal adoption progress on television...just move down the hall with the Romanos. Anyway,I lost interest when Ann married Dr. Johnny Fever...her daughters husbands father.Too far out on a limb for me.BUT..I'm pretty sure I stuck it out til the very end.

I liked watching One Day At A Time much better before I found out about Mackenzie Phillips being a hardcore drug addict throughout most of the series.

I was an avid fan of the show. I think it was one of Norman Lear's best sitcoms. Bonnie Franklin was magnificant in the role of Ann Romano. I had a crush on her especially when she cut her hair and look more attractive. My opinion the show should have ended when Ann remarried. The final season was horrible and it looked as though everyone on there was going through the motions of the season. It looked as though everyone (especially Bonnie, Pat Harrington, and Valerie Bertinelli) who was on the show from day 1. Hope to see a reunion one of these years. But let's get that show on Nick-At-Nite or TVLand. I'm there.

I meant to say it looked as though Bonnie Franklin, Pat Harrington and Valerie Bertinelli was ready in the final season of the show to move on. It showed in their performances and the quality of the episodes during that final season.

Say what??? You didn't LIKE when Max arrived????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Max breathed new life into the series!!!!!!

If Max hadn't arrived I would have had to find something else to do besides spending most of my day posting here and obsessing over him!!!

As for" Jeremy "!!! To me he didn't even exist !!!!

Because :

One of the worst moments in TV history to be sure.

The show didn't jump the shark. It jumped the Earth.

And it didn't do us much good either.
