Written by John Edward Betancourt

We really are living in quite the amazing time when it comes to television shows. Simply because every idea can be explored, and every story can now be told. For streaming offers networks incredible freedom to tell incredible stories that would have been kept at bay via traditional means and that reality allows for us to enjoy powerful stories that move us in ways we never thought possible and it of course, gives us something unique and exciting to watch on a regular basis. And it just so happens that another unique series is about to hit the airwaves.
​
For earlier today, BBC America, and AMC+ released all the details and a trailer regarding the upcoming drama, Mood. An engaging and dynamic story based on Nicôle Lecky’s critically celebrated Royal Court Play, Superhoe, and well… it is obvious from this information that we are going to be treated to a story that is unlike any other out there on the small screen right now, and for proof… here is that trailer and those details for all of you to enjoy, courtesy of BBC America and AMC+.

‘BBC AMERICA and AMC+ today released the trailer for Mood, a compelling new six-part series from actor, writer, and singer-songwriter Nicôle Lecky, based on her critically acclaimed Royal Court play Superhoe. The series, called "intense, absorbing" by iNews UK and "brilliantly executed" by Refinery29, will debut on BBC AMERICA and AMC+ on Sunday, November 6 at 10:00pm ET. AMC+ will premiere the first two episodes on November 6, with additional episodes available to stream on the service one week early.
 
Sasha Clayton (Lecky) dreams of becoming a major recording artist, but right now she’s a bedroom artist: spending her days smoking weed and stalking her ex-boyfriend (Jordan Duvigneau, My Mum Tracy Beaker) on Instagram. When she is kicked out of her family home for drunkenly trying to burn her ex’s house down, Sasha becomes homeless and is forced to fend for herself, sofa-surfing with local drug dealer Saleem (Mohammad Dalmar). Everything seems to change when she meets and moves in with Instagram influencer and party girl Carly (Lara Peake, Brave New World), who introduces her to the exciting world of making money and becoming ‘famous’ on social media. But as the gap between her online presence and her dream of being a singer continues to grow, Sasha finds herself struggling to escape this new influencer world that is more complex and darker than she could have imagined. The series is told in part through the songs that Sasha creates and features an innovative original soundtrack performed by Lecky.
 
Directed by Dawn Shadforth and Stroma Cairns and produced by Lisa Walters, Mood is written by and stars Nicôle Lecky. The series is executive produced by Nicôle Lecky, Margery Bone for Bonafide Films and Lucy Richer and Ayela Butt for the BBC. BBC Studios is distributing the series internationally.’
