Netflix has confirmed that the Emmy-nominated musical comedy, ‘Girls5eva’ will move to the streamer for a third season from Peacock. Sara Bareilles, Renée Elise Goldsberry, Busy Philipps and Paula Pell will return.
These women play the surviving members of a one-hit-wonder girl band from the ’90s, who reunite to try and become pop stars again. However, now they have to take a shot at success while managing spouses, kids, jobs, debt, aging parents and body aches.
The third season of ‘Girls5eva’ will stream exclusively on Netflix, while the first two seasons will be available both on Netflix and the show’s former home, Peacock.
Emmy-nominated writer, Meredith Scardino will return as showrunner with Tina Fey, Jeff Richmond and Robert Carlock also coming back as executive producers.
Talking about the show’s revival, the executive producers, in a joint statement, said: “Today, we are thrilled to announce that our reunited girl group will be re-reunited at Netflix.
“We are so thankful to everyone at the streamer who fell in love with our music-filled comedy. We cannot wait to introduce Dawn, Wickie, Summer and Gloria to the global Netflix audience. Well, not fully introduced — if you look closely, Girls5eva can be seen in the background of the Woodstock ’99 documentary setting a porta potty on fire.”
