The thing about Girls is that you shouldn't come to it expecting to laugh out loud. It's raunchy, there's awkward nudity, and some pseudo-funny moments, but most of all there's a strong realism in the scripting, acting and directing that almost makes it feel like a reality show. Basically, it's not comedy, it's not drama, it's not bad, it's not good. It's just mediocre reality. And that is why I stopped watching at the end of season 1.

One of the most overrated shows I have ever watched. There is so much problematic stuff going on and I literally hate every character, but rapey (and yet glorified) Adam was the worst. He made me finally stop watching. Total waste of time.

Laird's hat is more fascinating than Hannah's character.

I've watched every at least half a dozen times. This is by far one of my favorite shows ever made. Absolutely hilarious while delving into serious life events and situations. It's just total genius!!!

I hate to admit it, but Lena Dunham is kind of a genius.

There was nothing on TV like it at the time. I wouldn't want to see episodes to often but I think years from now when I've forgotten a lot of it? I'd like to watch again. efficient the first 2 seasons. Allison Williams and Adam Driver are amazing in it but the show really suffers for a lack of POC - I know Shoshana and Hannah/Lena and Jewish (and Lena is from a well-off family and writing from that POV), but they still live in NYC FFS!

Am I the only one who thinks that the one-dimensional characters in this dramedy are super unrealistic? All four of the "girls" are spoiled, entitled, bratty, immature, narcissistic, and stupid. Sure, millennials can be all of these things from time to time, but are we really _that_ bad? I kept watching in hopes that Hannah/Marnie/Shoshanna/Jessa would become better people, but NOPE. Nobody grows an inch.

There are a few funny bits, and their shenanigans are somewhat entertaining at least, but mostly this show is just frustrating.

Season 3 Ep 1 is hilarious. Best thing about this series is the dialogue, it's extremely well written.

Girls just got stronger as the series went on. Lena Dunham who created, wrote, directed and starred is extremely talented. Pretty sure I'm not the target demographic (37 year old Australian male. We are fairly niche), but the writing and honesty in Dunham's performance is really something. The 10 episodes of season 1 felt very organic, they all fit together very well. By the end it feels quite tidy, but open for a second season.

They make a nice nod to SatC in the first episode, but dismiss it. On paper comparisons on premise could be made, but it clearly isn't and they tell you up front.

I found the character of Adam fascinating with an amazing performance.

Girls really turned out great during the season :-)

Don't listen to the people who diminish it as a SatC copy/successor; it really is different.

Consistent, easily investible, completely average. It is a good show that stays rather consistent throughout its short six season runtime. With that being said, this show is your typical well written Judd Apatow show, with quality HBO production, but without the consistent Judd Apatow humor of Love, This is 40, or Knocked Up. It is a show that many people will enjoy, but the ones that love it will be incredibly niche. It is worth of checking out if you enjoy the realness of Judd Apatow content, or love a good coming of age story. With that being said, I would recommend Love over Girls.

Average Season Review: 7.5/10

Recommendation: Watch if You Need Content (For Coming of Age Comedy / Drama Fans)

This show is a perfect example of a train wreck too gory not to watch. Each person was so incredibly awful that it was enjoyable to watch them be awful. Having them break apart at the end was definitely the best ending . It's honest. It's gross. It's mediocre. Never have I seen reality depicted on screen so accurately.
