1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:02,760
Speaker 1: The creative geniuses at Netflix have come up with a

2
00:00:02,800 --> 00:00:05,520
Speaker 1: new series, and it's not from the Obamas, who are

3
00:00:05,519 --> 00:00:08,959
Speaker 1: now Netflix producers. I think for the record, the Obamas

4
00:00:08,960 --> 00:00:11,360
Speaker 1: wouldn't touch this project with a ten foot poll. It's

5
00:00:11,360 --> 00:00:15,760
Speaker 1: called Girls on the Bus. It's about four fictional female

6
00:00:15,840 --> 00:00:21,720
Speaker 1: journalists as they hit the campaign trail covering fictional presidential candidates. Now,

7
00:00:21,720 --> 00:00:25,600
Speaker 1: while following the candidates, these female journalists find friendship, love,

8
00:00:26,680 --> 00:00:30,400
Speaker 1: and a scandal. According to the PR hype, the scandal

9
00:00:30,640 --> 00:00:35,800
Speaker 1: could supposedly take down the presidency and our entire democracy.

10
00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:39,199
Speaker 1: The storyline was inspired, but what do you think? It

11
00:00:39,280 --> 00:00:43,720
Speaker 1: was inspired by Hillary Clinton's failed campaign, as covered by

12
00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:47,320
Speaker 1: Amy Choswick, a reporter at for the New York Times.

13
00:00:47,360 --> 00:00:51,480
Speaker 1: Girls on the Bus is adapted from her novel Chasing Hillary,

14
00:00:51,520 --> 00:00:56,440
Speaker 1: ten Years to Presidential Campaigns and one intact Glass Ceiling.

15
00:00:56,720 --> 00:01:01,680
Speaker 1: The Netflix series described as coming of age romantic comedy

16
00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:03,680
Speaker 1: or set on the campaign t or something like that.

17
00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:08,600
Speaker 1: Since it's based on Hillary, it can't be purposely funny,

18
00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:11,280
Speaker 1: but it's got to be scandal written. Now, for those

19
00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:14,280
Speaker 1: of you reluctant to watch an entire series about Mrs Clinton,

20
00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:17,600
Speaker 1: try this. Just tune into the last episode. If it's

21
00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:21,520
Speaker 1: even loosely connected to reality, you'll enjoy watching what happens

22
00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:25,600
Speaker 1: on election night. She will lose and her mind, just

23
00:01:25,720 --> 00:01:28,640
Speaker 1: like the real Hillary Clinton turned out to do in

24
00:01:28,720 --> 00:01:31,080
Speaker 1: real life. We can hope
