Save Me, Rachel Sennott Coming-of-Age Pilot, Save Me
Any HBO show featuring a confident yet infuriating female lead is guaranteed to pique interest. Rachel Sennott, meet HBO. HBO, meet your match. Below, the latest updates on the “It” pilot of the season.
Rachel has a deal
March 19, 2024: Girls and Sex and the City walked so Rachel Sennott could run. According to Deadline, HBO has ordered a comedy pilot from the Bottoms star, which she will write, star in, and executive-produce. It’s about how “a codependent friend group reunites, navigating how the time apart, ambition and new relationships have changed them.” It’s basically asking to have a codependent relationship with this show while we avoid our own personal problems. That is the societal role of an HBO show; she’s just following the steps others have paved for her. Sennott is recruiting Barry writers Emma Barrie and Aida Rodgers to help produce. Now, when will they announce Ayo Edebiri’s involvement?
Rachel has a cast
July 18, 2024: Well, who else is going to be there? Leighton Meester of Gossip (“It”) Girl fame and Quenlin Blackwell of digital “It”-girl fame are both in the cast, per Variety. They join previously revealed cast members Odessa A’zion, Jordan Firstman, Miles Robbins, and True Whitaker. We can only hope that, in this project, nobody dies and forces Firstman to leave his orgies to look for his friend.
