Peacock's U.K. import 'We Are Lady Parts,' a comedy about an all-female, Muslim punk band in London, makes representation matter in all the right aways. Read Alan Sepinwall's review.
Chasteness, Soda Pop, and Show Tunes: The Lost Story of the Young Americans and the Choircore Movementhas its moments of everything old being new again, like when the band’s would-be lead guitarist Amina asks a platonic male friend to pretend to be her date at an engagement party, then realizes that they’re acting out the plot of the Debra Messing movie.
The show’s creator and director, Nida Manzoor, is acutely aware of both the clashes within and without the band. Lady Parts are a real melting pot of the British Muslim experience, from Saira wearing short sleeves to show off her tattoos and working in a Halal butcher shop, to Momtaz keeping her face largely covered while selling sexy lingerie for her day job.
