Peacock Orders Laid Starring Stephanie Hsu; BUZZR Celebrates 60th Anniversary of Let's Make a Deal
Peacock announced the straight to series order of comedy Laid, starring and executive produced by Academy Award nominee Stephanie Hsu (Everything Everywhere All at Once, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel). The series is written and executive produced by Nahnatchka Khan (Don't Trust the B in Apartment 23, Young Rock, Fresh Off the Boat) and Sally Bradford McKenna (Son of Zorn). Also executive producing are John Davis and John Fox for Davis Entertainment; Jennifer Carreras for Fierce Baby; Marieke Hardy, Kirsty Fisher, and Liz Watts for Porchlight Films; and All3Media International. The series comes from Universal Television, a division of Universal Studio Group, and is based on the Australian series 'Laid' created by Marieke Hardy and Kirsty Fisher, produced by Liz Watts.
In the series, a woman finds out her former lovers are dying in unusual ways and must go back through her sex timeline to confront her past in order to move forward - Laid is a f**ked up rom-com where the answer to "Why can't I find love, is there something wrong with me?" is a resounding "Yes. There is. The problem is definitely you." More details to come!
