Dietland offers me a raw, painful, and, ultimately, beautiful, vision of myself - and for the first time, ever, that vision is whole.

It's basically "Ugly Betty" meets "Mr. Robot," mixed with a little of "The Devil Wears Prada" and some of what I can only assume Amy Schumer's "I Feel Pretty" was trying to say.

Sometimes you watch something, and it just has the stuff. Dietland may be a mess, but it's got the stuff.

Creator Noxon certainly has put together an attention-getter in times when growing numbers of prominent men very deservedly have been exposed for past and sometimes ongoing sexual misconduct.

Equal parts revenge fantasy and heartfelt tale of self-discovery.

Watching the show toss a million balls in the air is riveting, even if I have no particular expectation it won't ultimately drop most of them.

Dietland, with the disparate tones it attempts to tie together, ultimately works because it uses a lighter brush than you'd expect.
