What’s This TV Show About?
An ABC News docu-series, 1969 features archival footage, as well as in-person commentary from news makers of the year that brought us the lunar landing, Woodstock, the Manson murders, and more. Contemporary personalities Black Thought, Jazz Jennings, and Laverne Cox also offer their takes on the news that was.

1969 has ended so there won’t be a second season. Stay tuned for further updates.
Telly’s Take
Will ABC cancel or renew 1969 for season two? The ratings are terrible and, looking at the show for what it is, it seems most likely that this show is one-and-done. The network could do a similar series about another year or time period to fill a timeslot with an inexpensive series. I’ll update this page with breaking developments.
