Written Questioning Lost Opportunities by Bridger Cunningham

Netflix has yet to confirm, but per Hollywoodlife.com and Sophia Amoruso's Instagram account, the streaming service has cancelled the service.  A saddening announcement indeed, yet Sophia Amoruso, the vintage clothing entrepreneur the series was loosely based on, had harsh words lined up against Netflix:

“So that Netflix series about my life got canceled. While I’m proud of the work we did, I’m looking forward to controlling my narrative from here on out,” she wrote in a series of Instagram stories on June 24. “It was a good show, and I was privileged to work with incredible talent, but living my life as a caricature was hard even if only for two months. Yes, I can be difficult. No, I’m not a d---. No, someone named Shane never cheated on me. It will be nice to someday tell the story of what’s happened in the last few years. Ppl read the headline, not the correction, I’ve learned.” 

The series premiered on Netflix on April 21 to lukewarm reviews.  It featured stylish backdrops and standout performances outside of the principle cast.  The series had potential for character and story development, yet Netflix has amassed enough original material it can discern which shows to invest in, and which to cut its losses on.  Be the judge and try out the series.  It left a neatly-attired season which can entertain as a standalone season.
