LAID Starring Stephanie Hsu Cancelled After 1 Season

Peacock have decided to cancel Vancouver-shot dramedy Laid starring Stephanie Hsu after one season.

The 8-episode series follows Ruby Yao (Hsu), a woman who finds out her former lovers are dying in unusual ways and must go back through her sex timeline to confront her past in order to move forward. Laid is a new twist on the rom-com where the answer to “why can’t I find love, is there something wrong with me?” is a resounding “Yes. There is. The problem is definitely you.”

Laid stars Stephanie Hsu, Zosia Mamet, Michael Angarano, Tommy Martinez, Andre Hyland, Olivia Holt, David Denman, Finneas O’Connell, Chloe Fineman, Indya Moore, Ettore “Big E” Ewen, John Early.

Hsu announced herself on the scene with an amazing performance in oscar winning film Everything Everywhere All At Once.

The show is an adaption of the Australian series of the same name. The original series ran for two seasons from 2011 and starred Allison Bell.

Nahnatchka Khan (Fresh Off The Boat) and Sally Bradford McKenna are co-showrunners on the project. Stephanie Hsu is an executive producer on Laid with Universal Studios producing.

Filming on the project took place in Vancouver. It ran from 22 April 2024 through to 21 June 2024.
