Long Form Television: Good Girls Revolt

Image result for good girls revolt


I watched Good Girl's revolt for my bingeing experience for that week, at first I wasn't entirely addicted to the series but I was curious where it was going to lead so I kept watching it.  I liked the series a lot, I

But It's interesting to look back on this experience, and I could see myself over time bingeing it more and more over the course of the week.

I felt like the series was quite interesting you felt like you were back in the 60's in New York, in a time of revolution and change it captured the era very well. What's great about this show is that it show all the flaws of this era and such as the Blank Panthers efforts during the 1960's we see how the media was trying hurt them, behind the filters and we see the reality of the situation.

I think this show has a great story like I said before it shows a perspective of the news we don't usually see or gets credit for. It's so tragic that there are so many great women writers who are not getting the credit for their hard work, it's all taken and given towards the men journalists.


 The main character Patti Robinson is a hungry for the news. She is the researcher that makes the articles happen in the news. It follows her story and the many other women on the show in their struggle for equal rights, equal pay, and equal opportunity to be more than researchers but to be a journalist. So we see Patti, Cindy, and Jane as they try to start a movement for women to have these rights.
