    While the story carries some interest, the main character is completely unlikable. She's just an obnoxiously over-the-top entitled brat with zero sense of self or others. This would be fine if a few redeeming qualities were thrown in or there were some signs of remorse or self-doubt that pointed towards character development, but 3 episodes in she's even less likable than in the firstWhile the story carries some interest, the main character is completely unlikable.

The fact that this character has friends or people that are interested in her in this story is just ridiculous. No one in real life would put up with this person.… Expand

    I just think this kind of "post-modernistic" Netflix show could use a re-check up on its aesthetics. After going through three episodes, I get a huge headache from the "Girlboss" attitude. Throwing back to an old age culture just makes it seem even nastier. It's your call if you want to see this kind of ****

    [Girlboss] devotes its early episodes to doing nothing more than proving that Sophia is a surly jerk. But once Sophia finally starts to let go of her self-defeating instincts and make things happen for herself and for Nasty Gal, Girlboss becomes a lot more interesting, and a lot more fun.

    For all of Girlboss‘ bluster, the real problem isn’t that Sophia is unlikeable, it’s that she’s uninteresting. Hardly fleshed out beyond a line drawing of a devil-may-care rebel who hardly blinks at the idea of raiding a dead woman’s closet for vintage goodies, she’s a terribly wobbly center for an already uncentered show.

    It never realizes that perpetual adolescence is the show’s problem, not hers. Sophia needs reason to change for the series to develop, and Girlboss is far too content watching the business grow instead of its star.
