She starts to realize that she's as good as anyone else and acts on it." [6]

Production

Development

On April 24, 2018, it was announced that Hulu was developing a television series adaptation of Lindy West's memoir Shrill: Notes from a Loud Woman with a pilot written by West, Ali Rushfield, and Saturday Night Live's Aidy Bryant. Executive producers were expected to include Lorne Michaels, Andrew Singer, Elizabeth Banks, and Max Handelman. Production companies involved with the series were set to consist of Broadway Video and Brownstone Productions. [8]

On June 13, 2018, it was reported that Hulu had given the production a straight-to-series order. [9] On August 1, 2018, the series order was confirmed and it was clarified that it was for a first season consisting of six episodes. It was further announced that the first episode of the series would be directed by Jesse Peretz and the second by Carrie Brownstein. Additionally, Rushfield and West were added as executive producers, Bryant as a co-executive producer, and Dannah Shinder as a producer. [6]

On December 11, 2018, it was announced that the series would premiere on March 15, 2019. [10] On April 15, 2019, the series was renewed for a second season that premiered on January 24, 2020. [1] [2] On March 31, 2020, the series was renewed for a third season. [3] On January 27, 2021, Hulu announced that the third season would be the final season. [4]

Casting

Alongside the initial development announcement, it was confirmed that Aidy Bryant would star in the production. [8] Alongside the series order confirmation, it was announced that the series would co-star Lolly Adefope, Luka Jones, Ian Owens, and John Cameron Mitchell. [6] On September 5, 2018, it was reported that Julia Sweeney had been cast in a starring role. [11]

Filming

Principal photography for season one took place from the week of July 30, 2018, until the week of September 10, 2018, in Portland, Oregon. [12] [13] Season two began shooting in July 2019 until the week of September 7, 2019, again in Portland. [14] [15] Filming for season three started in October 2020, and ended on December 26, 2020, [16] due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Coincidentally, it started shooting around the time Bryant returned for her ninth season on Saturday Night Live , so she took time off from SNL to film the season (she appeared in the first episode of the season, and appeared once in a pre-taped segment in the third episode, during the first half of the season). [17]

Release

The series held its world premiere during the 2019 South by Southwest film festival in Austin, Texas as a part of the festival's "Episodic Premieres" series of screenings. [18]

Reception

Critical response

On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, the first season holds an approval rating of 93% based on 54 reviews, with an average rating of 7.91/10. The website's critical consensus reads, "Sharp social commentary and a star-making performance from Aidy Bryant help Shrill overcome its familiar comedic sensibilities to create a show that proves self-acceptance isn't one size fits all." [19] On Metacritic the first season has a score of 74 out of 100, based on reviews from 27 critics, indicating "generally favorable reviews". [20]

Kelly Lawler from USA Today gave the series a positive review, calling it an "unflinchingly authentic depiction of a fat woman in the modern world" and acknowledging that it "flies past positivity and shoots for fat acceptance." [21] Pop Culture Happy Hour's Linda Holmes, who is plus-sized, applauded the writers for giving the protagonist the best lines, instead of handing them off to secondary or supporting characters. Holmes writes: "seeing her perform such strong material is a delight". [22]

The Washington Post gave the show a more negative review, writing, "Shrill is mostly just another show that wants to make fun while also making essentially unarguable points about modern manners." [23] Robyn Bahr of The Hollywood Reporter criticized the series, opening with, "Warning: A fat woman has written this review" and later stating that the show is "not as sharp as it should be". [24] She also criticized the show's writing, saying, "her relationships are too underdeveloped to emotionally invest in." [24] Verne Gay from Newsday also criticized the series, writing, "Shrill too often feels more like that extended trope than fully developed series." [25]
