Girls

“Omg I knew it was her because that girl wears floral capris like her hymen's still in tact but she was such a slut in such a big way! @Lena Dunham is a genius”

“Marnie on her wedding day is akin to Marnie on their girl’s beach trip 😂 Her interactions with her makeup artist played by Bridget Everett is comedy gold.”

“oh so now i'm not supposed to show my vagina to anyone but you fran? it's about to be summer”

“I'm re-watching (after reading Famesick, ofc), and damn what an utter delight. The surprising things that come out of Hannah's mouth never fail to make me laugh out loud.”

“I recently rewatched Girls, having first watched it in my 20s when it came out. Watching again, I felt empathetic, not only for the characters but for myself at that age. What a gift.”

“In the year of our lord Lena Dunham. Let them be your friends as you become one with the couch.”

“I know I recommended the entire series but if you never watch that watch this episode. It’s so beautiful and well written it should be a short film on its own. This is my favorite piece of Lena Dunham’s writing so far. I know that it isn’t a rare take but I had an adjacent experience in my 20’s and felt so seen at the time I saw this. I alway thought it was so interesting that Marnie kept this experience to herself but it seemed to change her as a character.”

“I know many people love this show but I have a caveat to my recommendation. When this show came out I was still in undergrad, younger than the girls or “the ladies” if you will (Jemima won’t), the second time I watched I was their age, post grad confused, and unsure in the city I went to school in ect, then I rewatched it again in my early 30’s, post Saturn return but still very much finding my way. Each time I watched it with different eyes, first maybe a little judgmental and with the hubris of youth thinking not me, then with complete and total relatability weather I liked it or not (sometimes we are all a little bit too Marnie to look in a mirror), and then when I was older with so much sympathy, love and understanding. Watch it in every phase IF it’s still possible. If not just watch it.”

“Voice of a generation. Getting lost in other peoples chaos in New York helps with the summer blues.”

“Season 6, episode 1 opening scene makes me cry. Something about seeing everyone so happy and moved by Hannah’s article just gets me 🥹 I still keep hope the soup scene never happens and they get back together every time.”

““I want to get you in my spaces. I want to take you different places. I'm not at all really this romantic. I know you see me as a frantic girl. But I could give you what you want. I know you like the way I held my temper. When I gave you to the world, gave you to the world, I could be your heart type of girl. Cause I've been scared of crowded places. Come with me I'll take you home.””
