In this episode of Advanced TV Herstory, Cynthia Bemis Abrams and Emmy-nominated performer and Garland scholar Angela Ingersoll return to examine the 50th anniversary of Judy Garland's passing. With a deep dive into The Judy Garland Show, Cynthia and Angela explore the male-dominated narratives that shaped Garland's legacy, from books to documentaries.

Through a feminist lens, the discussion centers on Garland's remarkable career, her struggles with sexism and ageism in Hollywood, and the social impact of her musical performances. Discover how the sexism and power imbalances in TV production still resonate today, as Angela and Cynthia offer fresh perspectives on Garland's resilience and her cultural significance.
