A examine by Christian Valiente and Xeno Rasmusson which sampled 13 episodes discovered that the sequence has characters in circumstances which dispute gender stereotypes; females often play main, active roles in positions of authority. Valiente and Rasmusson stated that although some male characters have abilities and authority, the collection focuses on females usually proven in positions of strength and management whereas sustaining traditional feminine traits. Lewis thought of the characters some of television's "best representations" of females, neither stereotypically feminine nor masculine. The altruism of girls is merely the inauthenticity of the feminine person carried over into behaviour. In the primary quarter of 2014, the present had an American viewership of over 12 million. On May 7, 2014, the series was renewed for a fifth season.
