Peacock’s new comedy “Girls5Eva” features, naturally, a number of musical performances throughout its eight-episode run, but given pandemic filming restrictions, those numbers look a little bit different than your typical late-’90s, early-’00s pop concert.
“I put one performance in an abandoned mannequin factory because I thought it would give us a few more bodies in crowd shots, which was kind of cool,” series creator Meredith Scardino said in an interview with TheWrap. “It was definitely like throwing me into the deep end as a first-time showrunner, but I was really always amazed at how everybody rallied and made things happen, and I’m really proud of the product that we made.”

The latest Peacock series is laugh-out-loud funny and full of catchy original music.
Welcome to
Up Next, a column that gives you the rundown on the latest TV. This week, Valerie Ettenhofer reviews Girls5eva, the new Peacock series from the team behind Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt.
The theme song to
Girls5eva is both incredibly corny and incredibly catchy. “We’re gonna be famous 5eva, ‘cause 4ever’s 2 short!” a group of women sing while striking poses in bedazzled camo pants and tube tops. The opening credits of the new Peacock series are fitting for a comedy that creatively skewers the absurdity of the music industry, and by the fourth episode of the binge-worthy eight, you’ll most likely find yourself singing along.
