The Bold Type S1-5

Big on girl-power, and even bigger on real friends, all five seasons of The Bold Type are streaming on Showmax.

The Bold Type has a 91% critics rating on Rotten Tomatoes. AV Club calls the show, “A heart-on-its-sleeve, good-for-you affair that's also a glossy, giddy comic workplace drama.”

The new season holds the promise of tantalising hook-ups, fan-favourite make-ups, heart-breaking split-ups, character clean-ups (for those messy loose ends left by the pandemic-enforced abrupt end to Season 4) and level-ups for Jane (Katie Stevens), Kat (Aisha Dee), and Sutton (Meghann Fahy) as they navigate life, work and love in New York City.

Reasons to watch

100% critics rating for season 3, Rotten Tomatoes; 8/10, IMDB
Nominated for seven Teen Choice Awards, including three for Best Summer TV Show, two Best TV Actor noms for Aisha Dee, and one each for Meghann Fahy and Katie Stevens
Also nominated for GLAAD, Imagen and Satellite awards
