‘Girls5eva’ Season 2 Trailer Shows the Girls Going ‘Album Mode’
variety.comJ. Kim Murphy Peacock has released the first trailer for Season 2 of its original comedy series “Girls5eva,” which follows a ’90s girl group of the same name as they attempt to rise to pop star relevance once again.The trailer picks up with the characters played by Sara Bareilles, Busy Phillips, Paula Pell and Renée Elise Goldsberry united behind a piano, ready to write an album that represents their own creative vision for the first time.
The creative opportunity quickly shows that it has some strings attached, with a six-week deadline fast approaching.“We wrote all the songs on the album, so that means, if everybody hates it, they hate you as a person on every level,” Phillips’ Summer tells her bandmates. “We are officially in album mode,” Goldsberry’s Wickie announces.The trailer also offers a peek at the bounty of guest stars joining the Peacock series for the upcoming season, which will include appearances by Amber Ruffin (“The Amber Ruffin Show”), Chad L.
