It’s also a glimpse into Sadler’s mind, where the show’s insular nature works in its favor. There’s nothing braver than baring your darkest thoughts and trying to laugh at them — and nothing better than a sister, a mother, or an audience accepting you just the same afterward.
-
There are still lots of places for Such Brave Girls to grow, emotional gaps for it to fill in and realizations for it to force upon its unwilling characters. But for these six episodes, it works as an introduction to a lethally droll and riotously depressing family and a promising new comic voice in Kat Sadler.

Such Brave Girls is indeed brave – singular, fresh, scabrous and unflinching – but still – or, rather, as a result – hilarious. Let’s hope a second series, set up by the finale, will, like the girls, eventually make it through.

It’s honest to the point of abrasive, and at times downright ridiculous. But it’s also wickedly funny and looks mental illness dead in the eye with a daring grin.

Such Brave Girls could be a little funnier than it is, but the three main characters have such well-defined personality quirks that seeing them interact with each other and the world around them is pretty entertaining.
