‘Girls5eva’: Peacock Sets December UK Premiere For Girl Band Comedy
Newly launch Peacock UK has set a December premiere for ‘Girls5eva‘, one of their original comedies that follows a former 90s girl group who suddenly find themselves back in the limelight.
When a one-hit-wonder girl group from the ’90s gets sampled by a young rapper, its members reunite to give their pop star dreams one more shot. They may be grown women balancing spouses, kids, jobs, debt, ageing parents, and shoulder pain, but can’t they also be Girls5eva?
The series stars Grammy Award-winner and Tony and Emmy Award-nominated singer Sara Bareilles, Grammy and Tony Award-winning actress and singer Renée Elise Goldsberry, Emmy winning “Saturday Night Live” mainstay and comedy icon Paula Pell, and New York Times Best-Selling author, actor, activist, writer and host Busy Philipps.
Meredith Scardino (Colbert Report, Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, Mr. Mayor) serves as creator and executive producer for the series. Jeff Richmond, Tina Fey (Little Stranger, Inc.), Robert Carlock (Bevel Gears), David Miner (3 Arts Entertainment), Eric Gurian (Little Stranger) also serve as executive producers. Girls5eva is produced by Universal Television, a division of Universal Studio Group. The comedy has already been renewed for a 2nd Season.
‘Girls5eva‘ Season 1 premieres Tuesday, 21st December 2021 on Peacock UK, which you can find on Sky and NOW under the “catch up” section of box sets.
