I loved watching this show. I can strongly relate to each of the main characters. The show presents real issues without coming across as fake & stereotypical. What all of the women have in common, despite their own unique situations, is that they're trying to figure out who they are in a world where people have unrealistic expectations, and everything & everyone is 'perfect'. The women are portrayed to be strong & independent with real goals & careers. Although the show touches on the women's personal relationships with ex's, boyfriends, or girlfriends, it's not the main focus of the show.
Jane Sloan, is a newly promoted writer that is assigned to write about a topic she has not experienced. As a millennial currently going into my first real career (backed by Bachelor's Degree), I can relate to the pressure she feels to perform for her job, even if it means being put into very uncomfortable situations. It's difficult to develop a new role identity, especially being in your first 'real' job where expectations are set high.
Kat Edison, is a newly appointed social media director who follows her intuition on a story. She also struggles with her sexual identity as well as standing up for her own political viewpoints. I can relate to this character, because like her I'm also figuring out my own beliefs & political leanings.
Sutton Brady, struggles to decide if she should reach for her dream job or work the job that will realistically pay the bills. I can resonate with this character as well. In a job market that chews up & spits people out, I also need to decide if I should go for my dream job, or do what's realistic.
All in all, this series deals with real life issues that career oriented millennials will at some point deal with.
