Laid S1
A romcom with a fatal twist, Laid follows Ruby, a woman who discovers her former lovers are dying in unusual ways. To figure out why and to stop it from happening again, she goes back through her sex timeline — with the help of her best friend — to confront her past.
Created by Emmy nominees Nahnatchka Khan (Fresh Off the Boat, Young Rock) and Sally Bradford McKenna (Will & Grace), Laid stars Oscar nominee Stephanie Hsu (Everything Everywhere All At Once, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel) as Ruby, opposite Emmy nominee Michael Angarano (This Is Us, Oppenheimer) and Zosia Mamet (The Flight Attendant, Girls).
Laid has a 96% critics’ rating on Rotten Tomatoes, who say, “A breezy showcase for Stephanie Hsu’s considerable comedic chops, Laid racks up a high bodycount of laughs.”
