Lights, camera, Flawsome!
Flawsome follows the lives of four dynamic and ambitious friends: Ifeyinwa, Ramat, Ivie, and Dolapo. Season 1 presented various challenges for each character: Ifeyinwa (played by Bisola Aiyeola), a tech executive, discovered she wasn’t her father’s chosen successor after his demise. Ramat (Ini Dima-Okojie) faced the unravelling of her seemingly perfect marriage, Ivie (Sharon Ooja) experienced a breakthrough in her fashion career, while Dolapo (Enado Odigie) grappled with a career crisis.
Flawsome Season 2 promises to delve deeper into the lives of these women, addressing pressing questions like the possibility of reconciliation between Ramat and Uduak, or if Ramat will choose Godspower. Fans can also anticipate the resolution of Dolapo’s career challenges, Ifeyinwa’s journey to independence from her father’s company, and whether Ivie will learn valuable lessons from her personal and professional relationships..
Award winner Dami Elebe (Skinny Girl in Transit, The Men’s Club and Far From Home) is the head writer this season, Tola Odunsi (The Men’s Club, From Lagos with Love) also returns as director and executive producer.
Stream Season 1-2 of Flawsome now, only on Showmax.
