'The Bold Type' Renewed for Final Season at Freeform Freeform/Jonathan Wenk The Katie Stevens-led drama will end its run with an abbreviated fifth season on the Disney-backed cable network. The Bold Type's end is in sight. Freeform has handed out a fifth and final season renewal for its signature drama starring Katie Stevens. The final season, which will air this year, will consist of six episodes. That's down from 16 in season four and 10 apiece in its first three cycles. Additionally, Nikohl Boosheri will reprise her role as fan favorite Adena El-Amin. The series, which revolves around young women working for a magazine in New York while balancing their career ambitions and personal lives, wrapped the second half of its fourth season last summer on the Disney-owned basic cable network.
