Good Luck America is a documentary-style original series from Snapchat about U.S. politics. It is produced by Snapchat and hosted by Snap's head of news Peter Hamby, a former political reporter at CNN. The first episode of the series was published in January 2016, and is in its eighth season, reportedly reaching roughly 6 million viewers per episode.[1][2] The show won an Edward R. Murrow Award for Excellence in Innovation in 2017.[3]

Good Luck America was the first "show" created by Snapchat, which has since developed similar programming with ESPN, NBCUniversal, Turner, the NFL, ABC and other major networks.
