(via Variety)

Jill Soloway who has deservedly received bushels of accolade for her Amazon series Transparent is now developing a new series that follows two women that reconnect after getting struck by lightning and their fervor for feminism. 

The more intriguing thing to note about this project is that it’s going to MTV and not Amazon. 

Hopefully, Soloway along with writers Lyle Friedman and Ashley Skidmore can bring the edgy, but smart comedy that MTV has tried for over the last few years (i.e Zach Stone Is Gonna Be Famous)
