Ginny and Georgia is an American Dramedy television series. The creator of this series is Sarah Lampart. Netflix released this series on 24th Feb 2021. But the news of the production of this series was put out as early as August 2019. There were also some controversies regarding this series. On 25th February 2021, the term “Oppression Olympics” had gone viral on Twitter. This term was used in a scene by the characters Ginny and Hunter. This scene was negatively perceived by the audience and it was criticized for using stereotypes. The entire exchange was titled “Embarrassing”. The show was a victim to another controversy on March 1st, 2021. It was regarding a line from the final episode. Ginny said this line to Georgia. “You go through men faster than Taylor Swift.” This line drew a great deal of attention from Taylors fans. There was a huge backlash from the fans. As they perceived the whole thing as sexist and an example of slut-shaming. The phrase “Respect Taylor Swift” trended all over the world on Twitter. To this Taylor, herself commented. “Hey Ginny & Georgia, 2010 called, and it wants its lazy, deeply sexist joke back. How about we stop degrading hard-working women by defining this horse shit as FuNnY.” She also hit out at Netflix by tweeting, “After Miss Americana, this outfit doesn’t look cute on you” The show was also criticized for many other lines that referred to Lady Gaga and Lana Del Rey.

Ginny and Georgia Season 2 Release Date
Obviously, this season has gained a lot of attention. Part of it is due to the story and partly because of the controversies. But there are still many unresolved angles to this story that needs to be completed. So Ginny and Georgia season 2 is inevitable. There are still some scoops like Ginny’s newfound rebellious behavior and the angle of Ginny and Marcus, which can be the storyline for next season. As of now, there is no news for the arrival of Season 2. And due to the Covid-19 pandemic creating havoc, there is no confirmation that when season 2 will be out. Netflix usually checks the ratings of a show for about a few weeks then decides whether or not it needs to have a season 2. But that won’t be the case for this series. The cast and crew for this series are not fixed yet. But it is speculated that the cast will mostly be the same. But still, there is no affirmation on this, and it can be changed at any moment. The release date for this series is also not fixed, keeping in mind the pandemic situation. People can only hope for the arrival of this series as soon as possible. The series has already had enough controversy in its first season so I hope they don’t make such blunders in the second one. Read: She Would Never Know Season 2: Everything We Know
