Did you know Netflix’s latest teen drama Ginny & Georgia based on a true story?
Ginny & Georgia is a trending comedy-drama series that premiered on Netflix in February 2021. The creator of the series is Sarah Lampert which stars Brianne Howey, Antonia Gentry, Diesel La Torraca, Jennifer Robertson, and Felix Mallard. Ginny and Georgia tell about the story of a free-spirited mother named Georgia who moves to Massachusetts with her kids Ginny and Austin.
As Georgia’s past continues to haunt her, her teenage daughter explores life in a new school, as she makes new friends and begins dating. Georgia became pregnant with Ginny when she was just 15! And her life has been a seesaw ever since. To provide her two children with the opportunities that she never had, Georgia transformed herself from a shy and soft-spoken girl to a bold and seductive woman. She has been more of a wild card who can’t seem to get her life together.
Is the drama based on true events?
The show isn’t based on a novel like ‘Gilmore Girls’ nor is it based on a true story or one direct experience. Viewers need to wait for the show to get renewed so as to find out what’s going to happen after that big Season 1 cliffhanger. ‘Ginny & Georgia’ is a show about those two characters and their ever-changing relationship. But it is also ambitious enough to provide commentaries on certain issues that have become prevalent topics amongst youths today. The script for Ginny and Georgia was self-written by Lampert and Debra J. Fisher. Also, this has been their first project as series creators.
When would the show be recommenced for Season 2?
No official announcement has been made for the reboot for Season 2 but the show makers and cast is primed for the job. Debra confirmed that the suspenseful Season 1 ending was meant to get viewers excited for another set of episodes. “We always knew we wanted to build to that cliffhanger,” Debra added. “Everything else in the middle was a fun discovery.” The show also had been through a lot of dissension, viewers criticized a scene between Ginny and Hunter where he refers to the interaction as the “Oppression Olympics,” also the show got blamed for shaming the dating history of Taylor Swift.
