Laid, a Peacock original series starring Stephanie Hsu and Zosia Mamet, is a new millennial comedy that echoes the spirit of HBO's Girls. The show explores the awkward realities of adulthood with humor and heart.
HBO’s Girls became the show for the struggling millennial, and Laid , a Peacock original with a 96% score on Rotten Tomatoes feels like the perfect follow-up. Girls had an intense six-season run, following the trials and tribulations of four 20-somethings struggling to embrace, accept, and get a grip on adulthood. From false pregnancies to being unemployed, awkward sex to toxic friendships, Lena Dunham’s popular show covered every single young adult nightmare.
Like Sex and the City, the 2010s series continues to find popularity today, uniting generations of young women on their path to achieving (or eternally searching for) economic, personal, and romantic success and stability. Starring Everything Everywhere All at Once’s Stephanie Hsu and The Decameron's Zosia Mamet, Laid is Peacock’s most recent millennial comedy show. The Laid trailer follows a party planner who is mysteriously forced to reunite with all her exes, facing a journey that confronts her with her worst deeds and which might complicate a fated love connection.

However, where Girls’ characters were fun and relatable as they could hardly own up to their flaws, Laid pretends to make her protagonist figuratively, and literally, make up for the hurt she has done in the past. The witty yet embarrassingly realistic dialogue resembles Girls’, and Hsu and Mamet’s Laid performances make the script 10 times better, displaying their nuance and stellar comedic timing. Laid’s female pair is explosive, relatable, and subversive in the best ways, showing an iconic friendship that still has to acknowledge its unspoken issues. Mamet steals the show whenever she appears, and her character is very reminiscent of her beloved Girls rol
