I really wanted to like this show(as I am a fan of most Netflix shows), however, Girlboss misses the mark on all accounts. The main character, Sophia, is egocentric, selfish, and surly, not to mention the fact that she insults others for the tiniest of flaws, and expects them to gravel at her feet in return. The false reality that this show portrays is astounding. Its HIGHLY unlikely that someone with Sophia's demeanor and incompetence would ever become a raving success. She obviously has no respect for the law or authority given the way that she frequently steals and mistreats her boss. Is she really that shocked that she got fired? I seriously hope that this is not meant to be an anthem for millennial girls, as the entitlement attitude in this show is nauseating !! Clearly Sophia is TOO GOOD to work like us regular people;she must be special. Oh wait... isn't that her dumpster diving for some scrap bagels?? Poor thing has to steal a rug just to have something to call her own(sarcasm)..Don't worry though because she still gets to return home to her fully furnished and modishly decorated apartment, where her laptop and abundant wardrobe resides. And we are led to believe that this is struggling?? Clearly i'm confused!! This girl has no work ethic or morals. I'm not offended by crude humor or cuss words, in fact, given the right context it can make an entire show. However, in this program, I found it to seem forced and ill fitting. I just kept waiting to laugh, and never did. Overall, i'm sad that Sophia is the protagonist of this show. As a female who is only a few years older than a "millennial", this show should be something that I could somewhat relate to; sadly that is not the case. There is NOTHING inspiring about these events or characters. Sophia needs to get her s*** together and wait tables or something until her "business" takes off. At least that would be lucrative work, and I could respect that! Please don't waste your time watching this show, unless, for some reason, you want to witness a total fail.
score 1/10
