‘Girlboss’
It’s tough to comment on the failures of this show without commenting on the failures of the real-life person on whom the show was based. The show was based on a book of the same name, which is itself based on the life of Nasty Gal founder Sophia Amoruso. Many people felt like the character meant to be Amoruso was lacking substance, and maybe that’s because Amoruso herself lacks substance. Her once $200 million company filed for bankruptcy. Maybe if the show had reflected some of the flaws that led to her downfall, it would have had more staying power, but was it was, as one reviewer called it, “a tone-deaf rallying cry to millennial narcissists”.
