Girls5eva Moving to Netflix for Season 3; The Weird Place Podcast from Team Coco Launching
Netflix announced a season three greenlight for musical comedy series Girls5eva, from creator/showrunner/executive producer Meredith Scardino, executive producer Tina Fey and Universal Television. Netflix will be the exclusive home to the third season and it also acquired co-exclusive global streaming rights to the first two seasons of the critically-acclaimed Emmy(R) Award-nominated comedy. Girls5eva stars Grammy(R) Award-winner and Tony(R) and Emmy(R) Award-nominated singer Sara Bareilles (Dawn); Grammy(R) and Tony(R) Award-winning actress and singer Renée Elise Goldsberry (Wickie); Emmy(R) Award-winning Saturday Night Live mainstay and comedy icon Paula Pell (Gloria); and New York Times Best-Selling author, actor, activist, writer and host Busy Philipps (Summer). The series follows a one-hit-wonder girl group from the '90s who reunite to give their pop star dreams one more shot. They may be grown women balancing spouses, kids, jobs, debt, aging parents, and shoulder pain, but can't they also be Girls5eva?
Conan O'Brien's award winning digital media brand and podcast company, Team Coco, is continuing its expansion into the podcast world with its newest scripted podcast, The Weird Place, debuting today - Monday, October 31. The 5-part limited podcast series, voiced and executive produced by Dana Carvey, will drop episodes daily that feature a new story and an after show titled Talking Weird. Co-produced by Carvey's new production company, Antonio's Deli, The Weird Place is loosely set in the 1960's and will take listeners back in time to a place full of supernatural occurrences. "Our vibe is earnest and our Narrator's name is Rod - that tells you all you need to know" says Carvey. "Conan O'Brien and Team Coco were the perfect partners on this project. They let us have total freedom to create whatever we wanted. I hope people like listening to it as much as we loved making it."
