It has been three decades since Nick Hornby’s novel “High Fidelity” was first published, and its enduring popularity is evident in its adaptations into a movie, TV show, and even a Broadway musical. The story of delving into past relationships to understand the reasons behind present failures resonates with audiences, even in today’s digital age.

Enter “Laid,” a Peacock comedy co-created by Nahnatchka Khan and Sally Bradford McKenna, which can be seen as a modern-day version of “High Fidelity.” The show follows Ruby Yao, played by Stephanie Hsu, a 30-something party planner in Seattle who embarks on a quest to reconnect with her exes after a series of unexpected deaths among them. With the help of her best friend AJ (Zosia Mamet) and a colorful cast of characters, Ruby navigates the complexities of love and loss in a comedic yet poignant manner.

One of the unique elements of “Laid” is its ability to blend dark humor with heartfelt moments, much like the popular true crime and procedural dramas of today. The show features guest appearances from talented actors and comedians, adding an element of unpredictability to each episode. Ruby’s journey is not just about rekindling old flames but also about self-discovery and personal growth as she navigates the ups and downs of relationships in her 30s.

What sets “Laid” apart from other female-centric shows is its unapologetic approach to sexuality and dating. The characters engage in candid conversations about sex and pleasure, providing a refreshing take on modern romance. The show’s theme song, “Laid” by the band James, sets the tone for Ruby’s journey of navigating the complexities of love and relationships.

Despite its modern setting, “Laid” pays homage to classic romantic comedies and pop culture references, adding a nostalgic touch to the narrative. The characters bond over shared love for iconic films and actors, creating a sense of familiarity and connection for viewers.

In a landscape filled with recycled romantic comedy tropes, “Laid” stands out as a fresh and innovative take on love, loss, and the complexities of relationships. The show proves that while certain themes may be timeless, they can also be reimagined and reinvented for a new generation of viewers.
