This is what I just said in another comment. It's so weird to me that Girls has become the show that everyone associates with all the failings of the television system in regards to honest and balanced depictions of race, class, gender and sexuality, because it was a problem long before Girls ever came on television.

I think that the depictions of people of color and LGBTQIA people on television have a whole HELL of a long way to go to be anywhere close to equal or even acceptable, but I find it interesting that Girls has become a lightning rod for this specific issue that's been going on in television long before Girls existed.

I agree: I want a little more growth this season, especially for Jessa. I want her to learn from her mistake of marrying non-Irish Chris O'Dowd (why doesn't he use his real accent for everything? seriously…) and learn maybe to channel her free spirited-ness into something less reckless and more, I don't know…creative?

I watched it in one day too. Felt like a lot. My world was a little bleaker, and a lot more sarcastic.

That comment reads like part confession-diary, part example on a practice exam to correct grammar and part incredibly strange generational lecture. Hmmm.

Preach. Nobody's love life is perfect, and I think that's what makes the show kinda important with a capital I: it's showing relationships that seem lived-in, that deal with harshness and reality in a way that breaks up those rom-com cliches really well. Everyone on this show has things to work on, in every…

Charlie and Marnie are just two people that need to realize they CANNOT be together, and move on. Their relentless will-they-won't-they-get-back-together is just going to end in heartbreak. And Charlie is so innocently sweet, the whole scene with the girlfriend and the bathroom and Marnie being there to witness it was…

I like this index! I did a similar thing in my comment, because since nothing really big and plot-point-y really happens on the show and it's all about characters, it makes more sense.

Marnie seemed to be so put together last season, and her journey was all of that slowly unraveling (her angsty listening to Demi Lovato's "Skyscraper" while looking through Facebook photos was so incredibly true to life I couldn't help but laugh). I love seeing her try to figure out what her life is like without all…

I mean, "big white girls" meaning like a size 8? I mean, maybe compared to the other girls, yeah, but I wouldn't say Dunham is big.

Her timid singing of Beautiful Girls told so much about her character that dialogue couldn't. Well played, Girls!

Elijah apparently had to bow out around episode 4/5 because of The New Normal, but his send off is "spectacular" or something to that effect (I was reading an interview).

Caroline is the only character I could imagine following anywhere. Everyone else (even Klaus, kinda) seem pretty relevant only in Mystic Falls. And yeah, Phoebe Tonkin. Which I guess means she'll be alive.

I watched Korra all at once with my mom after I had watched it week-by-week alone, and I liked it a lot more as one cohesive story. I do think things are rushed, but I thought that her moral anguish and PTSD with Amon was shown a lot more complexly than Aang's stuff with the Fire Lord. I still love the latter, though,…

I mean, he's just a normal guest-star on Girls right now, but on Community, he's golden. Consistently the funniest and best part of the show.

I was so proud of Hannah, that she could walk away in that moment. Who knows if she'll go back to him, but for right now it was the right choice.

Well, that's good because he won't be sticking around for long because of The New Normal. I'm a bit lukewarm on him, as well: I feel like his only defining characteristic is "gay," which isn't terrible, but I wish the writers would expand him a bit more.

I agree: Shoshanna has slowly but surely become the heart of the show by being an adorable bambi of a girl. I love that she's growing and discovering more about the world, re: her relationship with Ray and living with Jessa, but still staying true to herself. And the girl can give a good ramble.
