The Bold Type (2017–2021)
9/10
Fun, lighthearted (mostly) show

I very much enjoy the show. It shows three girls going through their lives working at a fashion/feminism magazine, and their personal conflicts as they do. It does a decent job at characterizing the girls characters (although I think Jane could use some fleshing out, she seems to be mostly to be anxious as a character trait. She's being fleshed out though). The characters go through some conflicts that vary from being in jail to trying to get laid, but I think that the show shows them off decently. Kat and Adena are great characters, and (they are the most fleshed out, so that makes sense), and Jane and Sutton are also fun to watch, despite their stories being still worked on.

My one actual complaint about this show is that they take on too much at a time. I think the show would be better served with having the episodes focus on one (or maybe two) of the girl's issues, rather than all three of them at once. While I think that the structure could work in theory, I think they need to establish the characters a bit more before they spread themselves out like that.

Overall a good show!
