Originally airing on Freeform in the US starting in 2017, the show The Bold Type ran for five seasons with a total of 52 episodes before concluding in 2021. Now, viewers in the UK can stream the entire series on Channel 4’s streaming service.
Throughout its five seasons, The Bold Type received positive reviews from critics. Currently, Rotten Tomatoes gives the show an overall approval rating of 89%. Seasons two and three both achieved perfect 100% scores, and the first season earned a strong 93%.
Season four has a 63% approval rating. While the fifth and final season doesn’t have an overall score, it received some positive feedback.
Critics enjoyed the first season of the show, with Bust Magazine (according to Rotten Tomatoes) comparing it to a mix of Sex and the City and The Devil Wears Prada. The Irish Times described it as a lively and entertaining drama.
According to The New Statesman, the show is vibrant and funny, though it doesn’t accurately portray the world of magazine publishing. Despite this, the reviewer admitted to being consistently surprised and captivated by each episode.
Similar to other publications, The Atlantic highly praised the show’s third season, calling The Bold Type a genuinely enjoyable series with heartfelt stories and well-considered details.
If you’re not a fan of funny, dramatic shows about fashion, Channel 4 has lots of other options. One new addition, as part of the Walter Presents collection, is the Finnish-German crime drama Arctic Circle.
The Bold Type is streaming now on Channel 4.
