Geek Girl, an awkward teen who unexpectedly finds herself in the world of high fashion. Based on Holly Smale's book series, the Netflix show blends humor and heart to showcase Harriet Manners's struggle to fit in while embracing her unique quirks.
The classic teen dramedy. Harriet (Emily Carey) navigates the ups and downs of high school, including bullying from her nemesis, Lexi (Mia Jenkins). She accidentally catches the eye of a fashion scout, leading her into the glamorous yet chaotic world of modeling. The rest of the episodes show her working to prove herself in the field while trying to stay true to who she is.
We’re loving the representation. Harriet is portrayed with neurodivergent traits but at no point did the creators decide to put a label on them, making her relatable to an underrepresented niche. Carey's performance also did the role full justice.
It’s a feel-good watch. With themes of self-acceptance and friendship, this show is fun and lighthearted — which we sometimes need.
WHERE TO WATCH- You can watch the show on Netflix or watch the trailer (runtime: 2:25).
