Telly’s Take

Though Freeform needs to establish new shows, the ratings haven’t been great for The Bold Type. My empty gut says they’ll renew the show for season two but the series could easily be cancelled. Subscribe for free updates on any cancellation and renewal news about The Bold Type.

10/4 update: Freeform has renewed The Bold Type for season two and season three and is bringing on a new showrunner. Details here.
