Nickelodeon Renews Comedy ‘That Girl Lay Lay’ for Season Two

Nickelodeon has greenlit a 13-episode second season of its hit live-action buddy comedy “That Girl Lay Lay.” The series follows Lay Lay (Alaya “That Girl Lay Lay” High), an avatar from a personal affirmation app that magically comes to life, and her best friend Sadie (Gabrielle Nevaeh Green) as they navigate life as teenagers and discover who they truly are. Season one of “That Girl Lay Lay” shattered records this Fall with premieres delivering double digit gains on Thursday nights and consistent #1 rankings in the time slot across all TV among K6-11.

The logline: “That Girl Lay Lay” follows Lay Lay, a virtual hype avatar who magically comes to life after her best friend Sadie wishes on a star. For her work on the series, That Girl Lay Lay is currently nominated for an NAACP Image Award in the “Outstanding Performance by a Youth (Series, Special, Television Movie or Limited-Series)” category. Season two of “That Girl Lay Lay” will begin production early this year in Los Angeles with a premiere slated for this summer on Nickelodeon.

The series is produced by Will Packer Media (“Bigger”), with Will Packer (“Little, Ride Along”) executive producing and Peggy Cheng overseeing. The series is created and executive produced by David A. Arnold (“Side Hustle”, “Fuller House”), who also serves as showrunner. John Beck & Ron Hart (Side Hustle, Fuller House, Liv and Maddie) serve as executive producers.
