HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME.

Ugh they are pairing this with enlightened

12/1/2012 3:03:09 AM

Can't sleep...finished the first season. Glad to see other dudes watch Girls too.

1/7/2013 3:36:05 AM

I'll be happy when Lena Dunham is no longer famous or only does things behind the camera. She is unattractive to the point that its distracting.

1/7/2013 6:42:07 AM

I have hbo now so I'll be watching it

1/7/2013 8:51:51 AM

Oh, it's that show about how hard it is to be a privileged over-educated white girl in a parallel dimension version of Brooklyn where it's not mostly minorities.

You're not hard up if you have the option of getting anything from your parents.

The show is pretty critical of privileged over-educated white girls, you might know that if you actually bothered to watch it. And the main character gets cut off by her parents in the first episode. I think you can make a legitimate criticism of this show, but "lena dunham is ugly" and "waaaaah poor privileged white girls" don't even come close.

i agree with this part

it'd be different if it were Astoria and they'd throw some greeks in etc

1/7/2013 3:39:58 PM

I can only assume that you hate nearly every other tv show that has ever taken place in NYC?

because that complaint certainly ain't unique to Girls

1/7/2013 4:21:50 PM

i guess i didnt realize how cool it was to hate on the privileged

in my opinion no one is better than anyone else and any lifestyle can provide entertainment if presented well.

lets not watch Sanford and Son because Africans are getting their water from elephant carcasses

1/7/2013 4:30:59 PM

i enjoyed seinfeld, but his cast and surroundings were fairly indicative of his location

i think How to make it in america was a much more realistic nyc show, and honestly better written as well.

1/7/2013 4:32:02 PM

and also im glad that there is a show such as this that casts normal looking people and not a cast of supermodels

it helps me get immersed in the show a little more.

You wouldn't know good writing if it bit you in the ass. Examples of dialogue from How To Make It In America:

Quote :

"Love will change your life if you let it. It just happened to me."

Quote :

"Money, right yeah it matters, but it's one piece of the puzzle. Let me tell you something. Sometimes who you are doing business with is a lot more important than the business that you are doing."

Quote :

"Those aren't even real dreads. They ain't rasta they imposta."

1/7/2013 4:44:14 PM

anyone can pick out of context lines from any show to make it sound poorly written.

[Edited on January 7, 2013 at 5:05 PM. Reason : ;]

1/7/2013 4:50:17 PM

No amount of context will make that writing good. This is just another in a long list of examples of you being a moron and getting pissy when it's pointed out.

1/7/2013 5:00:19 PM

to each their own, but seriously what have you proven?

i always love the people who proclaim that they proved someone wrong when they havent done shit


just like TOB right buddy? i was so wrong there a nd you were right? Right?

This. I understand the hate... but most of the criticisms leveled are applicable to pretty much ALL television series models. Not that it makes the criticism less true, but focusing on one show in a sea of similar tropes is still pretty over the top.

Does anyone not think that Girls is just Sex in the City 2.0: Now We Have the Internet?

1/14/2013 3:02:41 AM

can't believe they managed that allison williams sex scene without a tit shot.

1/14/2013 10:05:15 AM

we got very excited during that scene only to have our dreams get crushed

some serious camera magic during that one

1/14/2013 10:11:49 AM

Im convinced that this show may be slightly more watchable if it wasnt all but guaranteed that the fat chick was naked every show

and correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm quite sure the Internet existed in the late 90's/early 2000's

might be going out on a limb there though

1/14/2013 10:15:27 AM

wait, you mean Carrie Bradshaw didn't fax in all of her columns and carry a bag-phone in her purse?




i enjoyed the premiere. and i too, was disappointed with the Allison Williams camera magic. I really enjoy this show, but I marathon watched season 1 once they had all been recorded on my DVR. I'm debating on doing the same, or at least waiting until 4-5 are backed up.

1/14/2013 11:38:32 AM

i really like Adam's character.

the season premiere did not change this.

not sure about donald glover yet.

Adam is partially there to make dudes feel ok about loving the show

and he is very good at accomplishing that

1/14/2013 11:46:35 AM

i didn't even think about that.

i just like the sheer audacity of what he pulls, and seems to think is normal. the show plays a lot with hyperbole right?

This.

Look, Lena Dunham, I'm a straight male that is watching your show and its cool that you are super-comfortable w/ you body, but if you arent gonna show us Williams' boobs, at least dont tease us please.

Beside the fact that how they remained covered was nonsense, I mean no girl ever would take her bra off w/ a dude and then immediately cover them and in such an awkward manner. I could see after they fizzled, but before??

[Edited on January 14, 2013 at 7:10 PM. Reason : a]

1/14/2013 7:09:09 PM

i hope she's doing it intentionally bc it's pretty funny to see people upset about it

1/14/2013 7:18:53 PM

[Edited on January 14, 2013 at 7:22 PM. Reason : i think, at worst, people are mildy annoyed by it. "upset" seems a bit much.]

1/14/2013 7:19:51 PM

If a guy director always wrote himself nude scenes with hot chicks, it would be creepy

1/15/2013 1:14:56 AM

She's doing what Dan Harmon did with Alison Brie.

IN REVERSE.

Her character would. She doesn't do blowjobs, she hasn't done anal, and pretty sure last season she was a missionary only gal. She is a pretty prudish hot chick. Vanilla.

1/15/2013 7:57:14 AM

I've watched the show since it started and still enjoy it; however, I also think it is overrated.

It might help if I could relate to or like any of the characters. It's entertaining which is why I watch it, but without liking or relating to any of the characters it will probably remain on my "decent" list.

[Edited on January 15, 2013 at 8:07 AM. Reason : ]

1/15/2013 7:59:15 AM

Brian Williams will never allow it to happen

1/15/2013 12:37:39 PM

i actually upset that she buckled to the criticisms about race, but at least she admits she did

that being said, i think i am interested to see what happens in that little triangle. I am actually rooting for Adam, i relate to the guy and I think he is one of the more vulnerable and sympathetic characters on the show.

and I got wood during that sex scene, no lie. And obviously Alison Williams doesnt want to be nude on camera its not some conspiracy by Dunham

that shot was still hot though...and hilarious.

it's constantly disappointing that this show, for whatever reason, always elicits the most superficial reactions/commentary from people.

rock-solid season opener, did a nice job of reintroducing the main characters, showing where they're at, and hinting at where they might be going this season. and it was funny as shit (hannah not getting the "french salon" thing, all scenes with adam, and ray calling shoshanna out on her emoji usage were all funny).

1/15/2013 8:25:47 PM

You are mistaking disinterest in the characters (who are insipid) and plot for interest only in the superficial.


If every character got hit by a truck, that would be a fine outcome by me.

1/15/2013 9:31:30 PM

Allison Williams began a multi-episode arc on The Mindy Project tonight.

1/15/2013 10:03:15 PM

^^hey, you know what's cool? If you hate a show, you dont have to watch it. I know surprised me too. You also dont have to troll threads about that show. Crazy, right?

^It's annoying, but that's what always happens in TV show threads. People watch the show every week , then fire up the Tdubs to complain how horrible it was.

1/16/2013 9:26:39 AM

missed last night's ep, anyone know a place I can watch it online that won't give my computer aids?

1/21/2013 5:26:15 PM

they replay all sunday shows on HBO2 the next day

excellent episode and another example of John Glaser making everything better

1/27/2013 9:50:33 PM

^laird was awesome, i don't know if i've ever been angrier with hannah than when she asked him for drugs anyway after he revealed that he had just gotten clean. i hope they make him a regular character. great episode.
