Choose an episode, any episode. Let me tell you how it goes. 3 girls start of confident, "bold", cocky. Something happens to each of them. The confidence is shaken. Woe is me. One will yell at/cry on/ completely disrespect their boss. One will make a tech mistake of some kind. One will make a relationship error. They talk about it together- except it's never a discussion, it's a monologue where each one is self obsessing and generally ignoring the others' problems. Then they work through the episode feeling bad, having no confidence, wanting to quit and all of a sudden... it all works out perfectly!!! Jane is the neediest person I've ever seen with a boss- how is that showing empowerment when she can't write a single article without her hand being held.Sutton is an alright character but for someone who works in fashion, she has awful taste at times.Cat is an interesting character. Stubborn and headstrong with the arrogance of youth that her way is the best way. she always has a mission, always got a new thing to change the world on. Regardless of who it might hurt.It's watchable fluff but entirely unrealistic. These girls do so little work, and are so emotionally distracted and mess up so frequently that they should totally get fired.

The only reason I can think of for those ridiculous glowing reviews is someone promised them something good, because this show is atrocious! I guess they were aiming for Sex In The City for young millennials, but this doesn't even raise to the level of that garbage show. There is nothing feminist about three gorgeous and perfect young woman who want to succeed in fashion, that is just playing into a stereotype that we only care about fashion and looks. And where is the challenge? They have a caring, nurturing boss (which rarely exists in real life) and they easily succeed with few obstacles in life- everyone is cheering these pretty girls on. Stupid, vapid and shallow. Skip it.

This. Show. Is. Great. Have to admit I wasn't planning on watching based on the original promos but I'm so glad I have it a chance. Each episode gets better and every character brings something to the table. Writing unlike anything I've seen before and compelling storytelling that makes me want Tuesday to get here ASAP every week.Give it a try!

I love this show. The Bold Type is a feel good type of show that I just want to watch with my girls. It doesn't just show what a good friendship looks like between girls but it touches on real issues that our country is currently facing. I really love how this show's setting is in a workplace and not in a high school like so many other TV shows. I feel as if this show should have a higher rating because who doesn't like a feel good show with feminism and girl power???
