I watched it for a while. In some ways it's very accurate. The people that hate on it the most seem to be the people that imagine it's just some retarded fantasy and not a reasonably real depiction of certain groups. It got too stupid/depressing for me to watch after the first season or two but it had its moments.
i don't think i've seen the third season, i'm not sure. i feel like i only watched the first two seasons. i honestly felt like it was pretty self aware in those seasons, tho watching Lena Dunham in public doesn't exactly make her seem very self aware lol. who knows, but i enjoyed those two seasons.
It's worth watching the next few, Shoshanna and Jessa in particular get so much character growth, and Marnie's storyline builds to this one episode that's just a masterpiece
Also we get to see more of Adam as his own person separate from Hannah which is nice
I consider it proof that Lena Dunham is a lot more self-aware than she lets on. The character she plays (Hannah) is basically identical to her public persona - and the show gets fucking vicious with Hannah and her blundering.
Honestly, Ray is probably treated as one of the show's most sympathetic characters, and he could not be less like Lena Dunham
Oh, totally. And on a good day, I don't think Lena's the uggo she's made out to be. I just can't stand the characters, even when their obnoxiousness is intentional.
A comedian named Kurt Metzger came up with a great explanation for the show. The show is a fat girls dream come true in that it's about how a fat girl gets these attractive guys and all her hot friends come to the fat girl for help.
are we talking about the gay teenager with asperger's, the black republican, or the control freak teacher here, everyone she fucks is a mess
I mean I guess her character had questionably-consensual sex that sexually aggressive woman at the yoga resort but I thought we were sticking to the guys
Her character in Girls is deliberately made up to look worse. She always seems to look better off set. She has the figure of a dumpling no matter which way you look at it but the shitty too tight clothes, bad makeup, and deliberately unflattering camera angles work surprisingly well to make her look less attractive.
That wasn't always true. Starting out she was the biggest thing ever. Though she seemed to never know when to not filter which ended up costing her. I can't see her career going very far after her show ends, though who knows.
I'm not really sure about this. iirc she signed a 3 million advance for her book and it was on the best seller list for a while.
She is not really popular outside a particular coastal cutural setting, it's not enough to win the election, but that is enough for her to continue to be a cultural figure, even if tons of people hate her for being a stereotype of a rich, clueless, narcissistic waspy girl.
Especially as she seems to have big family connections in the new York part of that setting and a lot of fans in the 'cultural elite' who work in the media etc.
I'm guessing she is going to be around for a while, especially the culture war is going to kick into overdrive in the next 4 years.
She got a huge advance though she, is near persona non grata in terms of higerability. Given how she puts her foot in her mouth.Especially with her faux pas.
especially the culture war is going to kick into overdrive in the next 4 years.
This is so true. I know people who voted for Trump who are like "oh now SJW culture is destroyed, hooray!" I'm pretty sure the exact opposite is going to happen and thousands of angry bloggers are chomping at the bit with their "In Trump's America..." clickbait pieces.
Many feminists hate her, causes major issues anytime someone mentions her in a good light. I watched girls for awhile but it was way too much Lena and not enough of the other characters that I actually liked.
I actually really liked Girls because I thought it was a funny, well written show about a character who is a clueless narcissist. Then I watched one of those "behind the episode" features and it turns out Lena Dunham isn't a great writer, she really is a clueless narcissist. So that makes the show even more entertaining for me.
The issue with the DNC is that is really seemed to stop caring about working class voters and switched to identity based politics. Though the media made it seem like the new paradigm.
I watched girls once when I was making shit money and my life sucked. I quickly realized it was a show about a bunch of well off kids with comfortable lives complaining about anything and everything. The depression was palpable. Now I see those fat drumsticks and once again all I want to do is drive into a bridge abutment.
Hey u/skekekt, you need to know that posting those photos of Lena Dunham is a serious violation of the law and linking to them is also a violation of Reddit's policies. I will have to report this to the admins because you are exposing Reddit it to serious legal liability. To quote article 223(e) sub article (iv) of the Geneva Convention's protocol on illegal weapons:
223(e)(iv): .....no Anthrax, no nerve gas, no mustard gas, Oh, and for God's sake, no pictures of Lena Dunham! I mean that's just inhumane.

I mean they can be smart in a sort of common sense way, but women are only funny when there's the possibility of sleeping with them.
