Shrill

Of course all the incels are going to come and rage against this show. They are the same ones that continue to taunt Lindy West to this day. But it's not for them. It's for all the women who have experienced the little traumas Annie goes through and has come out stronger as a person. It's a great show, that's well acted and has body positive messages. Aidy Bryant is very relatable and likable as a lead. It's a strong cast all around and I hope it gets a second season.

I'm halfway through season 2 and can't help but feel this show is trying WAY too hard and sending out so many awful messages. The protagonist I believe is meant to come off as an endearing millennial trying to find her way in the world but instead she is an absolute bully who likes to play victim. Her boyfriend is repulsive and the fact she allows him to treat her like garbage and still goes back to him is sending out such an opposite message to the body positive/strong independent female persona that's simultaneously shoved down our throats. I can't help but feel this is trying to hard to be on the same level as Girls or Fleabag but is completely missing the mark.

I can't say I was a huge Aidy Bryant fan going into this show, I thought she was funny but I never really connected with her. Seeing her absolutely smash it in this show, however, completely made me a fan of hers. This show is a must watch! I'm so pleasantly surprised and impressed. Everything is so spot on and so relevant and important. Also it's so freaking funny. You do not have to be a "bigger girl" to enjoy this show, it's so much more than that. It's self worth, self assurance, confidence and conquering your fears and insecurities in all aspects of life. Love it, go watch it now!

My only complaint is there was only 6 episodes! Great show loved wardrobe and the writing. Great chemistry with the actors, I couldn't stop watching next thing I know its over :(

Man, the thoughts she communicates with an awkward glance, a simple smile or actual words shows so much talent. Love the show. Watched all 6 episodes in 1 day. Want more now!!!

Thank you, thank you thank you.
