Billed as a twisted romantic comedy series, the\u00a0Laid<\/em> TV show follows a young woman (Hsu) who discovers her past lovers are mysteriously dying one by one. After this begins, she and her best friend try to figure out what is happening and warn her former partners.<\/p>\n

Eight episodes have been produced. The show is based on an Australian series of the same name, which ran for two seasons and 12 episodes in 2011 and 2012.<\/p>\n

In a statement, the new show\u2019s showrunners, executive producers, and writers Nahnnatchka Khan and Sally Bradford McKenna said:<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cWhen we started to develop LAID, we were intrigued by the idea of bringing back the old-school, traditional romantic comedy (swelling music! kisses in the rain! Anne Hathaway or someone who is also appealing!), but because we were living in such a dark time (pandemic! industry strikes!), we felt it needed to have some kind of twist. Sure, it could be optimistic and heartwarming and make you believe in love again, but it should probably also have suspense and death and blood. The premise of LAID \u2014 a woman discovers all of her exes are dying in mysterious ways \u2014 seemed exactly what we were looking for: a f*cked-up rom-com.<\/p>\n

Please enjoy as Ruby (Stephanie Hsu) searches for love, along with help from her best friend AJ (Zosia Mamet) who makes Ruby\u2019s sex timeline so she can track down all of her exes \u2014 the guys, the girls, the one-night stands, the man she only remembers as \u2018Green Day Shirt,\u2019 John Early \u2014 to tell them\u2026 they\u2019re going to die. It\u2019s truly the love story for our times.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
