I don't think all this talk is about the show Girls, though. The first article I saw on it was Jenna Wortham's. She seemed to be saying, "I really liked this show because I'm a girl in New York, too, but it made me sad that there weren't very many black people on it." That was pretty specific, to me. I didn't read all

Oh, shit. I just said what you said, 10 hours later. I'm sorry your taste is as good as mine but you read this sooner than I did.

I always think of him singing that Paula Cole song after killing the English people in the time travel sequence, and it fills me with joy.

Did Wortham address the fact that the show was called Girls, which may have led some to believe that it would be about a more homogenous set of girls? Or did someone say that in the Hairpin comments? I think that might be a factor.

You are so right. I'm going to try to take more chances on TV shows that seem like they were made for white people, so I can grow and learn and…

See, it all started when Noel's friend's friend said that Mad Men was like Roots for white people, which annoyed Noel. Then, Noel noticed all these other people calling stuff white, and that annoyed him, too. Then, people were complaining about Girls being white. (Not in the Jenna Wortham way, where she's complaining

I'm Latina, and I notice when a show that's supposed to be set in an ethnically diverse city seems to avoid portraying that. If Girls were set in Bumfuck, Iowa, I wouldn't care that its cast is all white. But I do think it's strange that it's set in NYC, and they only cast one black person, and he was the homeless

Her face was rounder than normal. I think she was retaining extra water.

Phi Phi did aerobics for her lip synch.

I got it because I went to LA once, and the traffic was so, so fucked up, and all the good things were in different boroughs or whatever, and I was like, "I couldn't ever live here because of the bullshit driving." Thanks for asking.

That's so interesting. I think "Don't Trust the B" is not funny at all.

Hell, yes. That would be awesome.

My Aunt Gertrude.

Why are you here? Are you hoping people will convince you to like the show, or feel sorry for you because you didn't? What is your purpose with these comments?

Agreed. See also: People who don't "get" Napoleon Dynamite are usually similar to Summer and the dude who crushed Napoleon's tots.

I think it simply required more supplementary reading than we're used to.

I thought she looked like Hedwig in the scene where she's prostituting and runs into her ex.

A little, yes. Sorry.

I like when he's Hader's little boy on the Italian talk show. Vinny Vedici show.
