Hey Lady! is a Canadian comedy web series that is directed by Adriana Maggs, Will Bowes and Sarah Polley, and airs on CBC Gem.[1] The series was created by playwright Morris Panych for Jayne Eastwood and is Eastwood's first leading role in her 50-year-long career. Eastwood portrays Lady, a wild and foul-mouthed woman in her 70s who is constantly getting into trouble with her friend Rosie (Jackie Richardson).
The series premiered at the 2020 Sundance Film Festival and was well received by critics, who described it as a senior citizen's spin on Fleabag.[1] Critics noted the talented cast, which includes Christine Horne as Lady's daughter Lassie, Zachary Bennett as her son Rover, Grace Lynn Kung as her daughter-in-law Molly, Raoul Bhaneja as her parole officer, and Don McKellar as her psychiatrist.
The series received five Canadian Screen Award nominations and four Directors Guild of Canada Awards nominations.
