She is not. She is making a TV-show about some young females straight out of college, not ALL young people females straight out of college. Her character saying "I'm the voice of my generation" is a joke….it is very obvious that she is delusional, and kind of pathetic.

The hate seems really irrational. I started watching Girls about 3 weeks ago, and loved it. Funny, really weird and sometimes poignant.

Exactly! "Girls" is one of those shows where I don't get a lot of what people are saying about it. How can you view that episode as being distainful to the Midwest, when it clearly is just showing how Hannah is no different from the people still living in East Lansing, she is just as delusional as the dancer. Hannah

What has the one to do with the other? Do you think there are any kind of correlation between being a great driver and a great surgeon? Are there some kind of studies I am unaware of?

Then he should be more aware of the implications of his storylines, and take into account the common tropes and themes usually accompanying bisexuals on TV. The bisexual "good" girl being rescued by a man from the "evil" homosexual is a problematic trope in media, he should know this.

Media of any kind is not created in a vacuum. Portraying homosexual relationships (and especially bisexuals in homosexual relationships) as bad, and something a heterosexual relationship can save you from, is horrible and much used trope. "Arrow" perpetuates this trope by chosing to showcase:Sara as chosing between

Sara is awesome, Laurel is a horrible excuse for a human being. If they fridge Sara to provide some kind of fuel for Laurel becoming the Canary, it will be a complete joke of a a storyline. Not to mention, they would need to take Laurel of to a deadly assassin school for 6 years make her alcohol-riddled body even

Laurel becoming Black Canary would be laughable, really.

Wow, this comment makes an excellent case for why its author should never be trusted with an opinion on a TV-show again. Good thing that it is saved for easy reference here.

@Michael_Is_My_Co-Caine Vietnam? The Phillipines? Chile? The Contras? Cuba? South America and South-East Asia in general? The continuing support of horrible regimes in the Mid-East to secure oil-supplies? The IMF/World Bank loan agreements that are still screwing up developing economies in parts of the world.

The small-mindedness is in considering "women" a demographic to program to, seperate from "viewers".

You have clearly not been looking at the show on Tumblr or Twitter….Alex Vause is the break-out character, and according to my lesbian friend she is also the sexiest woman on television, something about the tall,  dangerous-yet-vulnerable Alpha-female is pushing  a lot of buttons out there, and she is playing that

Most are clear, because their crimes are federal:

Only in the first few episodes, it gets better.

SPOILERS!

I don't know what show you where watching, but it seems to me that the prison population was more 1:1:1, with a little less white than black and hispanic. The first two episodes naturally focus on Piper (though this is not true later) and because of the "tribal" nature of the prison population, she mostly interact

"Because gender quotas is a universally idiotic idea. It creates an
incompetent and unfair society. It has nothing to do with "hating women"
or any b.s like that. If a woman is the most competent person for a job
i want that woman there. I do not want a woman on a job just because
she is a woman. That is where it all

I think it was meant to be….the power is going to her head a little.

Tyrion needs to kill her. His entire arc after a Storm of Swords is based on killing Shae and Tywin. His arc is a devolution into "villainy", in opposition to Jamie's redemption arc. He needs his moral event horizon moment, and killing his father and his lover is it.

I find all episodes with Tim Tom to be preachy, he is always the font of knowledge of wisdom for Sue and indeed the other characters in the show.
 I especially found the one with Brick's atheism to be horrendous, where the shows sympathy clearly lay with Sue, and Tim Tom's treatment of Brick was very condescending. Of
