"Good Trouble," a spin-off series of "The Fosters," has come to an end. After so many years spent with familiar characters, it feels like saying goodbye to family and friends.
"Good Trouble" seasons 1-5 are streaming on Hulu.
"Good Trouble" continued where "The Fosters" left off, with Callie Adams Foster (Maia Mitchell) and Mariana Adams Foster (Cierra Ramirez) embarking on their new lives in Los Angeles. The show resonated among viewers of all ages, especially those who enjoy storylines that focus on the young adult experience.
It's always hard to say let go of characters you've seen grow up and navigate the complications of life right along with you. That's why we wanted to highlight a few shows like "Good Trouble" that you can watch now that it's over. These follow similar themes of growing up, including plenty of friends, romantic interests and the drama that goes with those aspects of life.
'The Bold Type'
Loosely inspired by the real-life of Cosmopolitan's former Editor-in-Chief Joanna Coles, "The Bold Type" features the highs and lows of putting together one of the world's most popular women's magazines. Scarlet employees Jane Sloan (Katie Stevens), Kat Edison (Aisha Dee), and Sutton Brady (Meghann Fahy) navigate the trials and tribulations of their careers and romantic lives. It will surprise you, in a nice way, that their boss, Jacqueline Carlyle (Melora Hardin), is actually nice and supportive rather than cutthroat — definitely no Miranda Priestley. Like "Good Trouble," "The Bold Type" aired on Freeform and lasted for five seasons. There are even rumors of a potential reboot, so get caught up now.

Set in the fictional town of Neptune, this noir mystery teen drama follows the once-popular Veronica Mars (Kristen Bell), whose best friend was recently murdered. After her friend's death, the affluent crowd rejects her, and her father, Sherriff Keith Mars (Enrico Colantoni), loses his job. In response, he opens his own private detective agency. Veronica has inherited his sleuthing abilities, so she takes on some cases of her own at school, giving the show a Nancy Drew vibe but with more of an edge. Writer/creator Rob Thomas eventually released a film sequel and a follow-up season.
