Is there a more overused prop on television than the overfull wineglass? A woman of any age enters her home, exhausted from a crisis mild or extreme, and unthinkingly self-soothes with that adult milk. Simone Finch’s new series, “Single Drunk Female,” on Freeform, brings critical thought, breezily shaped, to the phenomenon of alcoholism among young women, without hardening into preachiness. Samantha Fink (the wonderful Sofia Black-D’Elia), a recovering alcoholic in her late twenties, sulks back to her home town after a drunken display at her digital-media job leads first to her firing and then to her arrest. Securing a job at the local supermarket and managing her relationship with her emotionally unavailable mother, Carol (Ally Sheedy), prove difficult for Samantha as she struggles to maintain her newbie sobriety. “Single Drunk Female” keeps its examinations of temperance and indulgence fizzy and light, which feels weirdly radical; here is a show that presents the alcoholic as neither a maverick nor a demon but simply a regular person. The series is the sort of formulaic, low-stress charmer that could further distinguish Freeform, a branch of Disney’s ABC Family that hasn’t been able to truly excite its target audience of young adults for some years now. The show can be corny, but also surprisingly sexy.
