Putting together a magazine is not an easy task, requiring a lot of teamwork to finish the job and get the publication on newsstand shelves. That's why the staffers responsible for producing global women's magazine Scarlet lean on one another as they try to find their own voices. While working together to publish each issue of the periodical, they struggle to find their identities, manage friendships and find love. The drama series is inspired by the life of longtime magazine editor and executive Joanna Coles, who serves as an executive producer.

Addissyn House Bitch Media 07/13/2021
As to be expected, the final episode of the beloved series was nothing short of fantastical, and, of course, a little cheesy... following Kat, Sutton, and Jane since 2017 has been the highlight of aspirational television. Go to Full Review
Michael Cuby them. 09/27/2022
After four seasons of surprisingly compelling stories about the utterly unrealistic inner-workings of a Cosmopolitan-style women's fashion magazine, The Bold Type is coming to its grand conclusion. Go to Full Review

3/5
I don't know, but it is certainly a waste of time - as is a lot of this episode. Here's to hoping we only go up from here and this season doesn't fall forward on its face doing a trust fall like Sutton. Go to Full Review

11/23/2021 Bunch of girls who always land on their feet. Think charmed without the book of shadows. These girls have an accessories closet. See more 08/25/2021 Three women, three friends, one amazing mentor. What this show gave us is nothing short of revolutionary in its simple task of delivering smart stories about smart women. You don't often see it depicted onscreen and certainly not as well done. See more 07/21/2021 This is so bad to watch. No, I didn't cry at the end because of the story, I cried because it was so bad executed. See more 06/28/2021 Really falls flat. Boring cheesy ending to character arcs. See more 06/11/2021 I have watched 3 episodes and it's completely ruined . The character of Sutton especially. See more Read all reviews
