What’s Girls on The Bus about?
The show takes viewers inside the campaign trail, focusing on four journalists that each have their reporting styles and personalities. The story particularly focuses on Sadie McCarthy (Benoist), a journalist who romanticizes what she sees as a bygone era of campaign reporting and changes her life for a shot at covering a presidential candidate.
Sadie joins the bus and eventually bonds with three competitors, Grace (The Fall of the House of Usher’s Carla Gugino), Lola (Mayans M.C. guest star Natasha Behnam), and Kimberlyn (Insecure alum Christina Elmore). The cast also includes Dead to Me’s Brandon Scott, Scandal star Scott Foley, and Oscar nominee Griffin Dunne.
The Girls on The Bus, from creators Amy Chozick and Julie Plec, is inspired by Chozick’s experiences as a political reporter on the campaign bus with multiple presidential candidates. Chozick and Plec serve as executive producers alongside showrunner Rina Mimoun, Greg Berlanti, Sarah Schechter, Leigh London Redman, and Marcos Siega. Jesse Peretz executive produced and directed the pilot. Benoist serves as a producer. The series is from Berlanti Productions in association with Warner Bros. Television.
