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
