Shrill helped provide Aidy Bryant with an "interior makeover"

The New York Times

The Hulu comedy is a deeply personal one for Bryant. While she found her confidence on Saturday Night Live, it is on the Hulu series, adapted from Lindy West's memoir, where she was able to find herself. Shrill, she says, helped provide “an interior makeover on how you approach life, but also how you receive people calling you a fat pig. To not let it penetrate and ruin you.”
