  1. Girls walked so half the messy millennial shows could run Lena Dunham really captured chaos in its purest, funniest form.

    the way i havent been able to watch past season 3 cause the idea of Adam and Jessa is so disturbing to me

    This is probably me being an annoying Gen z but I appreciate how authentically awful they are instead of whatever we have now 

  5. Recently binged this show and wish I could rewatch it again for the first time. It really is so special and such a great representation of the time!

    But also fuck Jessa and Adam

    also edit to add the q-tip scene traumatized me 😭

  6. I can’t watch it anymore because of Lena Denham’s whole deal but damn did I love that show as a millennial.

    The line, I think from the first episode, “You’re not an adult if your parents pay for your cell phone” stuck with me for a long time 😭

  7. i wish i could like this show but it’s just so cringe. i loved the concept of the characters being imperfect but at the same time some were so aggravatingly obnoxious and stupid that it made the show such a hard watch (though to be fair some people can be aggravatingly obnoxious and stupid too)

    I wanted to hate this show so badly as a POC in my 20s who lived in Brooklyn when it aired. Held out on watching for years. Ended up binging the whole thing two years ago and I was in love. Lena is problematic, to say the least but she’s an incredible writing talent and she masterfully captured the essence of what it was like to be a Brooklyn millennial in that time period
