Good Girls Revolt is closer to coming back. Deadline reports the team behind the cancelled Amazon series is pitching a second season to potential networks.
Set in the 1960s, the historical drama follows a group of young female researchers at a major news outlet who demand fair treatment in the workplace. The cast includes Genevieve Angelson, Anna Camp, Erin Darke, Hunter Parrish, and Jim Belushi.
Last year, Prime Video cancelled Good Girls Revolt after only one season despite good ratings and critical praise. Now, TriStar TV’s Suzanne Patmore Gibbs says they working on trying to make season two happen:
We have heard a great season two pitch and are taking it out this week and next week to several interested buyers, all of whom were incoming calls. Again, this is sort of back by popular demand. The showrunners have been in touch with the actresses, as well as our whole cast, and everybody’s very eager for a reunion.
Our second season pitch is shifting now. It’s a lot different than the pitch that we walked into Roy with, because we’re unchained, which is liberating. And also, frankly, there’s so much to say about what’s going on right now through the lens of yesterday that happened then and happened now, that it just feels like there’s so many relatable situations that we can cover through these characters we’ve already come to love.”
What do you think? Did you see season one of Good Girls Revolt? Would you watch a second season?
Sadly it looks like this show isn’t coming back. I never will figure out why TV companies drop popular series and promote trashier stuff, it never seems to make sense. Page Reid (below) said it all much better than I.
It’s Sept 2018. I finished watching the last episode last night. I’m sick!!!!! If Amazon would please bring us a second episode exactly where if left off and with the exact same actors it would make me very happy. I will never understand nor believe the Amazon Executive reasoning behind its cancellation to begin with. I felt like I was finally able to understand why women (my mom) had it so hard being a wife, mother and full time worker – for a lot less money when she worked harder than most men I knew. It validated a generation that… Read more »
More more more. Please.
I just began watching Good Girls Revolt yesterday and I can’t stop watching. Please, please bring it back!! It is the best TV I have seen since Sports Night!
Bring it back.
An important series (I hope), with excellent writing and acting. I protested when it was cancelled and am delighted to hear of its possible return. Fingers crossed.
This is so great to hear. This series deserves to be on television. Please bring this back!
Please bring the series back. It is great
Please bring the show back! Women are becoming empowered in the now but it’s important and even critical to understand the historical context of that empowerment. Women stood up when it was inconvenient and even dangerous to do so. We are part of that amazing continuum. The show reveals and celebrated that rich history and I want more! Thank you.
