Time to burn your brassieres, ladies. Prime Video has cancelled the Good Girls Revolt TV show after one season. Genevieve Angelson, Anna Camp, Erin Darke, Chris Diamantopoulos, Hunter Parrish, Jim Belushi, Joy Bryant, and Grace Gummer star in the historical feminism drama. Writer Dana Calvo executive produces the series with Lynda Obst, Darlene Hunt, Don Kurt, and Jeff Okin.
Inspired by real-life events, Good Girls Revolt is based on Lynn Povich’s book, The Good Girls Revolt. Set in 1969, the newsroom drama follows female researchers at News of the Week, who request fair treatment in the workplace. The ten episode first season just dropped to Amazon on October 28, 2016. THR reports Sony Pictures Television has big plans for season two and will shop the show elsewhere. In other words, there is still hope for more.
Good Girls Revolt Cancelled After One Season on Amazon
Here is more from THR:
Sources say streaming monitor Symphony Advanced Media metrics had Good Girls Revolt collecting more viewers than many of Amazon’s other originals. Sources say Amazon Studios head Roy Price was not a fan of the series and didn’t deem it to be an awards season player in opting to pass on ordering a second season after hearing Sony’s season two pitch this week. The studio had hoped to file on time for a California tax credit.
What do you think? Have you watched the first season of the Good Girls Revolt TV series? Should Amazon have cancelled or renewed it for season two?
Just found this show, finished season 1 in 3 days, such a great show and so relevant to what is happening right now! This show hits on so many levels. If any other network picks this up I will be all over it. I have told everyone I know about this show! Boo to Amazon!
Gee, why would Roy Price cancel season 2?
Is he CHAUVINISTIC? Or just stupid?
Amazon as lost me as a loyal devotee
I LOVED this series. It was riveting, well written; costumes and hair very authentic to the time, as was the story and scenery; and the MUSIC…OMG …the MUSIC – I’m an Amazon Prime customer and I want MORE!!
I agree with MDC below. The viewers LOVE this show, myself included of course. I’m deeply disappointed by Roy Price’s decision.
Roy Price needs to be fired!!! GGR was collecting more viewers than many of Amazon’s other originals. Hum… just because he didn’t like it. Go with the viewers choice. You keep taking away what viewers like and eventually viewers lose interest and you lose sales. No brainer… if I was another channels I would scoop up on this treasure. I finished Season 1 in 2 days, it was that good!!!
Loved this show – so disappointed.
Just finished season one of Good Girls Revolt. I absolutely loved it! I’m so shocked to hear there are no plans for a season two! Please reconsider!
I loved this show.. Please bring back!
Please reconsider bringing back Good Girls Revolt for a season 2. I am so disappointed in Amazon canceling this series. It was a great show! It really makes me rethink about how I now feel about Amazon!!!!!!
I couldn’t agree more. Loved it! Not sure I have any interest in starting another Amazon original.
So disappointed that this was cancelled. It is a great show and seems like it could have a long run.
This show is so relevant why would you cancel it. Please bring it back
I am halfway through first season, and wanted to find out when the second season was going to start. I love this show and am very disappointed that there is no season two.
Love Love love this show and couldn’t wait for season two. Great story for our times. History repeats itself. Interesting charterers that you want to know where they go next in their life journey. i wish they would reconsider a another season or 10?
This show was so interesting at many levels. The music and history lines from the 60’s were fascinating to re-experience and reminded me of much I had forgotten. The writing was terrific and the acting superb. I binge-watched season one and I want more! TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE BEST THAT STREAMING BRINGS TO VIEWERS: A DEEP DEVELOPMENT OF CHARACTERS AND RELATIONSHIPS THAT RESONATE WITH US AND EVEN EDUCATE US TO SOME EXTENT. STREAMING IS REVOLUTIONIZING ENTERTAINMENT BECAUSE OF ITS ABILITY TO GO SO DEEPLY INTO CHARACTERS AND STORIES. IT’S BETTER THAN ANY MOVIE OR ANY TV BECAUSE OF THIS. PLEASE… Read more »
