Dollface (2019–2022)
7/10
A Savagely Funny Evisceration of Modern Womankind
15 November 2019
I knew nothing about this going in, and could only find one review on the interwebs, which I was confused to find REALLY didn't like it, until halfway down I started reading terms like "internalized misogyny" and then realized what type of person must have written it, and that just made me want to watch it all the more.

The 'crazy cat lady' bus, right at the beginning of the show, is hysterical, and sets up the absurd leaps of imagination that mark out the journey it sets us on as something special. The whole show, really, is just a savagely funny evisceration of modern womankind - the cliques, the backstabbing, the shallow Instagram artifice and feel-good Oprah-approved fads and philosophies. It's all the funniest parts of Lena Dunham's Girls, played only for laughs in a endlessly imaginative way. I found the pilot episode delightful.
