Series' storyline and cast

An Amazon original scripted historical drama series, Good Girls Revolt debuted on the streaming platform on October 28, 2016 with its 10-episode freshman season. Based on real events and adapted from an eponymous book by Lynn Povich, the show is executive produced by Lynda Obst and Jeff Okin and hails from Lynda Obst Productions, Annabelita Films, Farm Kid, TriStar Television and Amazon Studios.

The series begins in 1969 New York and focuses on a group of young female researchers working at the News of the Week magazine – Patti (Genevieve Angelson), Cindy (Erin Darke) and Jane (Anna Camp). Their personal and professional lives at the time of the truly revolutionary changes in the American society reflect the large-scale cultural revolution going on around them. The status of women is of particular interest to the creators, and the actual landmark workplace equality suit that was brought forward in 1970 is at the center of the plot. Pervasive sexual harassment also plays a significant part in portraying the shifting reality of 1970s gender politics.

Impressive reception and renewal potential

The show's receiving excellent reviews that note the series' significance in clarifying the fact that despite the seemingly revolutionary changes that took place in regard to gender discrimination in the last five decades, not much has, in fact, changed. Besides the social impact of Good Girls Revolt, its main positive aspect is the powerful female leads. However, practically everyone agrees that in the inevitable comparison of the series to Mad Men, Good Girls Revolt loses the battle. It does, however, have solid review aggregator scores of 7.3/10 on IMDb and 78% on Rotten Tomatoes. It seems to certainly have enough strength to last, and we would be surprised if the show was discontinued.

Latest news

UPDATED December 2, 2016: Amazon's freshman period drama Good Girls Revolt did not manage to survive past its first season, as it came to light today. The reasons for such hasty cancelation are not immediately clear, since there is data suggesting that the series did gain traction with the audience. In any case, Sony Television, the company behind the series is already shopping the show around in an attempt to find it a new home, so please stay tuned and we will inform you if anything works out.

Excellent show!! I just completed all episodes of season one, and was SO eager to discover the outcome during the second season. I'm shocked and beyond disappointed after reading the cancellation news. Please bring this show back. We are all left hanging, and this story is not over, yet! Thank you to the writers and actors.

This was the best series on television all year. It was wonderfully acted and underscored a period in our history that is still continuing. It reached a lot of viewers. Please continue the show and don't let us down.

So disappointed. I just watched the entire first season in one weekend. Please bring it back. It was a wonderful story and historically accurate. I was so looking forward to the continuation. This was a series that could go on forever telling the story of women in this country. What a mistake.

The first season was wonderfully portrayed and historically accurate. It is also a gripping social drama. I'm so sad to learn that season two is not going to be made.

Are you guys crazy? This was filled with history, drama, great characters, etc. the shows that due get renewed are so often impossible to figure out. This one should have been automatic. The characters were so well developed and storyline relevant still. How many primary women-acted shows are allowed to have these real and genuine parts without stereotypical female parts that lack meaning, relevance, and depth. Someone isn't thinking this through nor giving the proper voice to those that found so much within the show. I'm beyond disappointed.

OMG - I can't believe this was canceled. I loved this show and have watched it 10 times. Amazon, you are crazy for not renewing this wonderfully written, and acted, series. I hope some other broadcaster picks up this series. You have A LOT of fans out there. This is really disappointing. All my friends and family have enjoyed this series so much. Please reconsider.

I was obsessed with the show!! I could not wait until Season 2 and was devastated that it was not renewed!! To the point that I would pay to purchase the 2nd season on DVD if possible. Please keep us posted on whether another network picks up the show!!! I thought it was fantastic and kept me watching episode after episode. The writing and characters were amazing. AMAZON has seriously disappointed me.

I am so disappointed that Season 2 was cancelled as I honestly really enjoyed this show and was looking forward to Season 2. Good Girls Revolt needs to be picked up and advertised more as I honestly think people will love it.

I loved this show. I was hooked on the first episode and watched the whole series in 2 days. I am so disappointed that it was canceled. I sure hope another network grabs this series. Good Girls Revolt is the best series I have seen on TV in a long time.

I was surprised when I read a comment that someone thought this series was "implausible". I graduated from college in 1970 and, while I was not trying to be a journalist in The Big City, I experienced very similar situations.
Of course the show is canceled. It's a sign of the times. Let's talk about it in DC on January 22.

This is insane. A program that speaks to our aspirations shot down. It's as bad as Hillary's defeat by a misogynist pig. Now Amazon smears our noses in this muck. Netflix must come to the rescue. This show must survive!

I watched this one with my sister and we loved it! It helps give context to how much we haven't had to deal with in the workplace, and the bravery it took for women before us to make a stand.
