SitcomsOnline Digest: One Day at a Time Comes to an End (Again); SNL Lines Up December Hosts

Welcome to SitcomsOnline Digest! This week, we're learning of the cancellation (again!) of One Day at a Time, but one of the stars may be landing somewhere else fairly quickly. Also, we're hearing what fans and critics think of the Saved by the Bell reboot, a plan to replace Alex Trebek (at least temporarily, and more). Let's get going!
