In order to reunite with her old friends, whom she didn't meet five years ago, after entering a long relationship with a guy who left her without reasons, Jules Willy, prepares for hanging out with her friends.
Dollface could have been a fun, forgettable diversion, the kind of show meant to be watched as you fold laundry. But its approach to feminism, which it name-checks, strikes a sour note.
Individually, these characters work fine, but together, they're a headache, and that's a problem when the whole point of the show is proving that girl squads - their words, not mine - can have each other's backs no matter what.
Every possible rough edge of gender, sexuality, race and class has been sanded off of these characters and this story. Yet Dollface stays consistently watchable and even its familiar punchlines often hit thanks to this cast.
Ultimately, the series really works because of the strong performances. Anyone who has watched Kat Dennings knows she deserves a TV hit. She's a great everywoman trying to navigate the tricky landscape of female friendships in your twenties.
This is a great cast of women, trapped in a series made by a bunch of obviously talented people who will almost certainly go on to make smart, funny, daring, bold things. This isn't one of them.
