Uncatena Posted October 27, 2022 Posted October 27, 2022 Quote The band has a new home: Girls5eva is moving to Netflix from rival streamer Peacock for its third season. The move is a shock as it’s one of the first original series to move between rival streaming services but Deadline hears that the Tina Fey-produced series was actually canceled at Peacock before Netflix swooped in to save it. Quote In addition to greenlighting season three, Netflix has also acquired the co-exclusive global rights to the first two seasons of the show, which earned Scardino an Emmy nomination for Outstanding Writing for a Comedy Series in 2021. Quote “We are so happy to bring Girls5eva to Netflix,” said Tracey Pakosta, VP, Comedy Series at Netflix and former Co-President of Scripted Programming at NBC. “Just like the show, we are so excited to reunite with this amazing team.” Scardino, Fey, Richmond and Carlock said that they were thrilled that their “reunited” girl group will be “re-reunited” at Netflix. x

Gossip_Boy Posted October 27, 2022 Posted October 27, 2022 This show is funny as hell. I’m glad it got out of that flop streaming service. I hope it gains traction now and becomes popular a la You, Cobra Kai etc.
Tangane Posted October 27, 2022 Posted October 27, 2022 OH MY GOD! Yesss!!! Netflix might cancel good shows left and right, but they're also doing some good deeds!
Lovett Posted October 27, 2022 Posted October 27, 2022 Yay! Thank god they're moving it from that flop streaming service!
PrettyHurts Posted October 27, 2022 Posted October 27, 2022 I love this show but I’m shocked Netflix took it. It’s really corny and doesn’t seem like anyone watches it. Exiting though!

It has the same tone as Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, which was hugely popular despite how corny it was.
Mirtilo Posted October 27, 2022 Posted October 27, 2022 I'm mean, I didn't even know there was a second season already. Glad to hear it will be moved to a proper streaming service
andresg770 Posted October 27, 2022 Posted October 27, 2022 Damn, now I gotta keep my (parents') Netflix subscription But I'm so glad they rescued this show! I was worried it might get cancelled after NBC's promo for season 2 was such an underwhelming flop... And I guess it was, so I'm excited Netflix rescued it! It honestly fits right in with many of the other comedies they have, so hopefully Netflix puts more of an effort into giving this show some buzz again. The whole cast deserves it tbh
ALittleGauche Posted October 27, 2022 Posted October 27, 2022 Amazing! We love to see talent being recognized. ?
Rachel Berry Posted October 27, 2022 Posted October 27, 2022 Not Peacock cancelling it. Worms for brains. With the way season 2 ended I would’ve fumed had Netflix not swooped in to save it. Can’t wait to binge watch it all when it comes out!
