Girls5eva have got some preparing to do!
They’ll be reassembling for some new music very soon!
The Peacock Original comedy Girls5eva will premiere Thursday, May 6.
All eight episodes will drop at once on Peacock, so you can get your binge on with this one!
“When a one-hit-wonder girl group from the 90’s gets sampled by a young rapper, its members reunite to give their pop star dreams one more shot,” reads the logline.
“They may be grown women balancing spouses, kids, jobs, debt, aging 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.
Yes, the series bursting at the seams with talent, and it all translates perfectly in the thrilling first trailer.
We get to see them react to the news of their potential return to the limelight, and it hits them all differently.
They’ve understandably changed in the years since, but will they be able to work together as a team?
It’s no surprise that people change as they get older, but it will be fun to see this group of women adapt to an ever-changing industry.
In all honesty, the trailer is more reminiscent of BH90210, the reboot of Beverly Hills, 90210, and that’s a good thing.
I loved that show!
