Girls (HBO)
Follows the lives of a small group of friends in their 20s trying to chart their lives in New York City.
The premise sounds awful but the 1st ep is pretty well executed.
Created by a talented lass called Lena Dunham (you may have seen her movie called Tiny Furniture).
I think it is worth a look!

please tell me it's written by dudes.
(mostly) written by lena dunham. often directed by lena dunham too.
i started doing some reseach on lena durham and then in the middle of her being on the irish dude's talk show i got bored.
thanks for reminding me about this vps. david bean cooley was raving like a dipshit about it the other day on NPR. downloading!
Well it's all in the writing isn't it? I mean, ''Follows the lives of a small group of friends in their 20s trying to chart their lives in New York City'' says more or less nothing. I'll try to assume too much about the fact that Judd Apatow is an executive producer and wrote a bit.
yeah, i heard some twitter raves about it today. downloadin'.
The girl on girl nudity is a man's touch. PS, Apatow, girls don't sit naked in their bathtubs eating cupcakes while their hot best friend looks on.
This being said, I related to a bunch of it. Apart from her being financially supported by her parents (we have Youth Allowance in this country) and her ugly tattoos. Ouch. My misspent youth.
this could actually be lena's schtick. there's a scene in tiny furniture where dunham's character shaves her legs in the shower while her sister reads her a poem.
Speak for yourself. I'm currently sitting in a bathtub full of cupcakes, eating cupcakes. My best friend is also a cupcake.
Can't be bothered.
that is totally dumham's touch.
dunham damnit. i'm the dumham, clearly.
Hmm, so CaptainHowdy, seems they're in the office of Melville House Books. That's some way hip product placement.
YOUR HAM IS DUM ANOK
Speak for yourself.
I'm female and in my early 30s. In my 20s I shared many a bath with female friends (we were usually stoned, which could have led to cupcake eating) and it wasn't odd for us to talk to each other whilst on the toilet either.
I still don't really have any qualms about friends seeing me naked - like if I have to quickly change a shirt or something - but I know some friends who'd be kinda prudish about that sort of thing too. People are different!
Also, I enjoyed the first episode. Looking forward to more.
Zosia Mamet was the total anti-Joyce (her character in Mad Men) in this too.
OK so the jury is divided on the bath/cupcake issue. But these stories are getting a bit 1800-HOTTALK. Tell me more about these friendly cupcake baths.

bye-bye charlie
Wow!
Apparently he's going to be replaced in the cast by an adorable baby deer.
Kill his character off!
Start the next season with Hannah and the rest at Marnie's funeral. In between seasons, Charlie's company went under and he murder-suicided. That's how my fan fiction reads, anyway.
i can understand why the actor wouldn't want to keep going.
he'd probably cop a lot of flack on the mean streets of williamsburg or wherever the hell these jerks live.
lulz
can she just just keep her fucking clothes on! I just watched s2 episode 5 and I've had enough. playing table tennis in her undies. please. I can't take it anymore.
just finished the rest. I cried. I love Adam. Hannah is still a child that needs someone to look after her. her dad wouldn't (girl who cried wolf) so Adam was the only one left, guaranteed after they bumped into each other on the street. Adam did that to Natalia to see if she would freak, test her character to accept him for what he is. made him remember what he had with Hannah, who accepted him no matter how fucked up.
loved jessa/Ben mendelson her dad thing.
that ear thing made me squirm big time, wtf!
the Charlie marnie ending is fucked. hate her.
I just watched the Ep9 season 2 where Adam spooges all over Nats breasts, i have never seen jizz in a mainstream TV or movie in my life. I guess thats ground breaking. penetration and hard-ons cant be far off.
does silence of the lambs count? they also said ''cunt'' a couple of times and walked away with a whole heap of oscars
silence of the lambs has a shot of jizz in it? where was it?
well maybe i should clarify, I've never seen a jizz shot so overtly sexual, i mean its a pair of titts with jizz on them, thats the sort of thing i thought was only seen in pornos.
happens in real life too apparently
the dude in the cell next to hanibal says to clarice ''i can smell your cunt!'' then chucks jizz at her. then hannibal kills him.
nowhere near as sexy/awkward, deffo more ''psycho in an asylum'' behaviour.
