Not too sure if anyone has stumbled across this: -

Good Girls Revolt (TV Series 2015– ) - IMDb

This Amazon-original series is set in New York in the late 1960s, when a cultural revolution was sweeping through the free world. One place that was not quick to change with the times was newsrooms. Inspired by real events, "Good Girls Revolt" follows Patti Robinson and her fellow female researchers at News of the Week, who decide to ask for equal treatment. Their quest initiates an upheaval that impacts romantic relationships, careers and friendships, and propels Patti and her friends into unfamiliar territory that they never dreamed of.

Found myself not 100% sure what to watch next so gave the pilot a go and end up watching the whole season. Enjoyed it and look forward to hopefully seeing a 2nd season.
 
Good to hear.

The way the season finished will certainly make things interesting between some of the characters in the next.
 
Clearly written by someone born in nineties, therefore doesn't fully grasp the area and takes crazy liberties with everything - wrong news timelines, out-of-era music and technologies, real/historic characters placed where they should't be and a lot of time the author presumes end of 60ies was more like 1910s in terms of feminist movement and 1950ies in terms of fashion. But other than that - quite watchable.

Lol, I'm ashamed to say I hadn't looked at it like that. :D
