Last year, Freeform cancelled its Guilt and Dead of Summer TV series, after their first seasons. Now, the cable channel seems to be leaving the darkness in the past with The Bold Type TV show. Have they found a winning formula with this lighter summertime fare? Will The Bold Type be cancelled or renewed for season two? Stay tuned.
A Freeform drama inspired by the professional life of former Cosmopolitan Editor-in-Chief, Joanna Coles, The Bold Type stars Katie Stevens, Aisha Dee, Meghann Fahy, Matt Ward, Sam Page, Melora Hardin, and Nikohl Boosheri. Set at the offices of Scarlet, a women’s magazine, the story follows the newest generation of “Scarlet women” as they make their marks on the industry. It centers on Jane (Stevens), Kat (Dee), and Sutton (Fahy), who support each other even as they learn to assert themselves to the formidable figures at the company. Together they delve issues including sexuality, identity, romance, and style.

Just discovered this show and am only half way thru my binge. Depth of character and scope of issues rewarding. But, more importantly, these actors are really talented and there’s good writing going on.
Please renew this show. It makes me happy and it has a powerful message to young women out there. Its a shame to see one or two bad comments about this show here bt one can’t satisfy some people. This show clearly deserve to be renewed thank u
PLEASE RENEW THE BOLD TYPE! It’s my favorite TV show and it’s so empowering, tackling important problems like LGBT and feminism.
I love THE BOLD TYPE and I don’t usually watch these types of shows. So ready for season 2!
All I can say is “I Love The Bold Type”!!!! Please renew!
I need a season 2 so badly even though this season isn’t even over. These characters are amazing and the script is great it’s so classy and gives young women actual goals.
please do a second season! This is the next Sex and the city, but smarter, bolder, and empowering to women! Please, please…. keep it on!
It should have another season. I mean this is the show that I really love the most. I’m sure it’ll do better in the next seasons.
Just renew it for a second season freeform.

I need need need another season of this show. The Bold Type has really struck a chord with my roommates and myself because of how relatable and empowering it is for early 20 something girls. Every girl that I have suggested this show to comes back absolutely loving it. They do a great job of writing powerful female characters that show all the facets that come with being a female leader, as well as growing up and figuring out who you are as a female in today’s society.
Who rigged the ratings this week? 42% jump in demo after crashing for 3 straight weeks? Riiiiight.
The 3 laughing hyenas in the banner up there look like this:
Season 2 please!!! I need it in my life!
Deserves to be renewed for another season.
