No airdate for Fumero and Beatriz's episode has been revealed, but season three of One Day at a Time is scheduled to debut in 2019.
This isn't the first time a soap opera star has shared extreme excitement about being included in the making of the popular Netflix series. General Hospital alum Kimberly McCullough (ex-Robin Scorpio) recently directed an episode of the sitcom that she couldn't wait for fans to see.
