Powerful

One of my all time favorites.

Am i the only one who thinks........Average?

This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.

Okay, I get that it addresses real issues of life for people this age, and I respect that. But, it gets kind of hard to watch after a bit. Not because of subject matter or quality of the acting, but because of the characters, especially Hannah. She is the most self absorbed, annoying and attention seeking character that i've ever watched. She can't do anything unless she is the center of attention, and has to make people feel bad for her all the time. She always talks about herself, and I never see her ask any of her partners anything about themselves, and always has to turn every problem that her friends have into something about her. It's also pretty obvious that Lena Dunham writes and produces the show, because she always gives herself the most lines and the most drama (I get that she's the main character but still), and doesn't characterize the supporting characters at all and never elaborates on their drama. Overall, pretty eh show.

I tried. I really did give it a fair chance, but this is one of the most pointless and boring shows ever produced. Disclaimer: I'm a heterosexual male so I'm not her target market but I still recognized the good writing and likable characters on Sex and the City. Lena Dunham is a talent-less hack who has no business having her own show ... or showing off her naked body.

I'm a 50 something woman whose college aged daughter watches this show so I am watching it so we can talk about it. I like the overall story line and see there is a brand of feminism and social commentary it offers. My daughter does not think most twenty something women live like this but, then again, she is not in NYC.I find the show overly graphic without a real need to be with significantly more tits and ass than balls and dick. It is sort of is hypocritical in that way given the brand of woman freedom it seems to me it is trying to promote in the world. The girls' story lines are interesting and it is really really funny. Great wit and humor throughout. The main character is a love. I like the inclusion of gay characters. One episode had a fabulous abortion situation that was dead on in my opinion. Again, the social commentary that show up at times is excellent.I think it is definitely worth watching a few episodes. My only real complaint is that it feels to me as if the show is continuing the notion that naked men are not wanted to be viewed on TV. I would prefer as much penis viewing as full on naked women. It really just dilutes its potency somehow for me.

The characters in this show are the most self-absorbed egotistical people I have ever seen. Everyone acts like Lena Dunham has mastered the craft of writing, but when I watch these episodes I think to myself.." I could have written this on my coffee break" I mean seriously ,1 entire episode was Hanna bickering back and forth with a male writer about his misogynistic views and then having the camera cut to a shot of his penis before rolling the credits. Uhhhh .. where is the writing?? This show is just a dizzying portrayal of a bunch of lazy and confused millennials eking their way through life. I tried to warm up to this show, but in the end, it is what it is.
