He likes a show entitled Girls! Ain't life grand?
Let me guess, somebody stole her sweet-roll?Originally Posted by sonatine
yeah but before that episode, her dysfunction was always framed in this capricious, whimsical, post-ironic irony like it was all too fucking cute.
this time we got to see a bit of the center of the storm, eg the fundamental instability and guilt and self loathing that she uses her 'quirkyness' to distract people from.
i thought it was very good writing personally.
Loved this episode to pieces and all you haters can chug that straight to the bank.

As if that scene wasn't dirty enough already.

My mouth was literally hanging open for about 3/4 of that episode for all the right reasons.

Literally the single most awkward plowing Ive ever seen on a cable television series.

I think the series is still pretty top top after the first three episodes.
Loving Ray's development and Marnie and Hannah getting chilly.
Not sure that the inclusion of Adam's deranged sister holds any value, show doesn't need any more eccentricity
Shes got a 3 episode arc total. I was on the fence about her until the bathroom scene.
This season is just fucking great. Even the parts I hate, by the end of the episode Im like "ohhhhhhhh...." which is pretty much why Im firmly on the Dunham is a Genius train.
One notable exception is Jessa, whom I expect is going to be a consistently horrible blight on the entire season, but hey, whatever.

id bang the jew.
How does girls have a thread and not Shameless? I love that fuckin show. I have to force myself to watch Girls. Hello ladies is the better funnier male version of Girls imo.
omfg what the hell was that.
that was so far on the opposite side of the spectrum from good, it seems somehow blase to just call it bad.

Yeah this episode was all kinds of nothing. The Adam's sister character is awful. And what's up with the stoner neighbor throw in? Pointless. I hope they do more with Colin Quinn in future episodes. I've always liked him.
love the jezebel shout out a week after they put a fucking bounty on the pre-retouched vogue cover shots.
totally not awkward.
real talk tho i hated this episode. the characters went from amusing riffs on what their stereotypes could be to straight up awful, terrible, polarized stereotypes.

nothing to see here, just sex in the city (hipster version)
plug in aubrey plaza for the fat chick who always gets naked and i'd watch
this is the part of the thread where i say 'youve obviously never watched a single episode of girls' and you say 'haha touche'.
its not that youre wildly off base but girls is fucking dark.
and the writing is occasionally amazing.
