"We Are Lady Parts" Creator Nida Manzoor on Season 2

"Making season one of 'We Are Lady Parts' was immense for me. It was a trial by fire, but I found my voice, my style, and my confidence in creating this show. Most importantly, I found my tribe – from actors and crew to producers and studio execs. So, coming to season two, I was galvanised. The characters, the world, the tone – it was all there, established, and ready to go. Now, it was time to turn things up to 11. I wanted to go bolder, sillier, darker, and deeper, and that is exactly what we strived to do," series creator Nida Manzoor shared.

Manzoor continued, "In season two, we explore the interior lives of each of the women in more depth. Each of them faces new, existential challenges with all the silliness, pratfalls, and banter of season one. The music is bigger, too – more wild original tunes (penned by me and my siblings) and, dare I say it, even better covers. The season overall asks the question of success. What is success? For a punk band – is fame, stadium shows, and major record deals the answer? I wanted to explore the uncomfortable tension between art and commerce and ask how much compromise is too much. I'm really proud of what we achieved, and can't wait to share it with old fans and new."

Season One of We Are Lady Parts is streaming on Peacock.
