Release date

The first season of 'Get Even' will be available to stream on Netflix on July 31. 

Plot

The 10-part series is adapted from the book of the same name by Gretchen McNeil. Kitty Wei, Bree Deringer, Margot Rivers, and Olivia Hayes come together to expose the bullies within their school. To maintain their anonymity, the girls create a secret society, DGM (Don't Get Mad, Get Even) where they target bullies with a series of pranks. The pranks are intended to expose the bullies' nasty ways, but things turn awry when their latest target, Ronny, ends up dead. Despite doing their best to deliver justice, they find themselves framed for his murder. In a bid to uncover the true killer, the girls embark upon a mission to find the truth. Along the way, they face the usual teenage troubles - first love drama, tests of friendship, not to mention exam stress and coursework deadlines.
