Its first season was terrific too, but for this sophomore effort, creator Nida Manzoor has achieved something so transcendent that the series is bound for membership in television’s hall of fame.

It’s a credit to the whole team that WALP can cover so much ground in three hours without feeling overstuffed. The show hits all the right notes—it’s potent, touching, and laugh-out-loud funny—and, like a good gig, leaves you wanting more.

Whatever your expectations from the show’s general premise of “all-female punk band struggle to reconcile their personalized interpretations of Islam while also emphasizing their commitment to the music and to each other,” the lively, funny, and lovely “We Are Lady Parts” (streaming on Peacock as of June 3) will exceed them.

You can feel the plot straining at the confines of just six episodes, and an easy solution would be for someone to please, for the love of little green apples, greenlight a second season. Because what We Are Lady Parts does well, it does extremely well, and its infectious spirit and charming characters deserve a chance to play on.

Manzoor created a unique voice for the show when it premiered in 2021, and it’s a delight to see that it’s just as loud and proud in Season 2, without any hint of the usual sophomore slump.

It’s a lot sharper, and more humane and ambitious, than so many of the comedies that come across “my desk.” ... The six half-hour episodes are a triumph of reach and representation as they make each of the band members, as well as their families and friends, into unpredictable characters who, like most of the real people I’ve met, are faceted and contradictory. You can’t easily pigeonhole any of them.

Manzoor taps into a love for rock mythology and its power to bind people to music with profound reverence. Even that is outdone by the affection with which she's written these women.

For all its familiar touchstones, We Are Lady Parts also feels like something I haven’t quite seen before, in the same way that Fleabag felt. ... Another major We Are Lady Parts asset is its music. ... What’s so special about this series is that it’s impossible to pigeonhole anyone or anything in it.

Time by Judy Berman

Electrifying. ... There is a lot to love about We Are Lady Parts. The dialogue is sharp and funny. Vasan’s performance is endearingly vulnerable. There are trippy animations, clever pop-culture homages, catchy original songs.
