Plot Synopsis
Inspired by 2018 Amy Chozick's memoir, "Chasing Hillary," THE GIRLS ON THE BUS is a one-hour dramedy series that tells the story of four female journalists, who find friendship, love and scandal as they follow a parade of flawed candidates in an unpredictable presidential campaign. The story centers on Sadie McCarthy, a journalist who romanticizes a bygone era of campaign reporting and scraps her whole life for a shot at covering a presidential candidate for a paper of record. Sadie joins the bus and eventually bonds with three female competitors, Grace, Lola, and Kimberlyn. Despite their differences, the women become a found family with a front-row seat to the greatest soap opera in town -- the battle for the White House. THE GIRLS ON THE BUS debuted on Thursday, March 14, 2024 on Max, which released the first two episodes. A new installment drops weekly on Thursdays through May 9.
