I simply don't understand why she is getting the brunt of the blame on this site when Judd Apatow, who is obviously senior to her, is an executive producer — not to mention HBO having ultimate authority over anyone who is cast. Having worked in television for quite some time myself, I can tell you I've heard a lot of…

You have absolutely no idea how much creative control she has. Her executive producer is Judd Apatow. Do you think she out ranks Judd Apatow? If he weren't involved, the show wouldn't be on — that's the truth. It's her first show. I completely believe she'll "stick to her word" though I don't understand the ire…

I think the lack of focus on "Veep" here comes from, A) it was created by a man. B) Julia Louis Dreyfuss is an "old" (like me) and we don't matter.

Where are the heated articles about Jake Kasdan and Jason Reitman? The Dunham bashing almost makes me miss the Diablo Cody bashing. (Hey! Her casts aren't diverse, either! Internet, get on that).

I don't know, she better get on that, as she has been elected to solve racism.

Wow, there's some new way women can be bad moms? Now I have to worry about having too good a relationship with my mother and daughter? Perfect.

How dare I feel the way I've been trained to feel?

I hate the sun. It's too hot and too bright. Also, bathing suit fabric doesn't "breathe" so, all I think when I see a girl in a bathing suit is yeast infection.

Louis CK is the worst example ever. I don't know why I said him. Still... maybe HBO could pick up a series by a diverse writer is my main point.

I guess Louis is a bad example since the show has been on more than one episode.

First of all, I want to see more diversity on television. At the studios and networks, they are absolutely adamant about it, and your show has less chance of getting on the air if it DOESN'T have diversity. I'm not sure about the pay cable channels because I haven't worked there in awhile. HOWEVER, we'd see more…

Now that everyone hates it already I'm going to start loving it. Maybe it's cause I'm Gen X. When you all start loving it again, I'll start hating it. (I got my first job at 15).

Yeah, I'll watch it, even though I'm an old, who's also a TV writer, who will never ever never get the level of attention Lena Dunham is getting. Ever. Because I'm an old. (Can't wait for Veep! 'Cause I'm an old!)

I think your rose-colored glasses are delightful. The majority of men who father children actually want to father children. If partners share the financial burden, it makes it easier for them to share parenthood as well.

For the record, I totally got your sarcasm. I think feminists (me) balk at the idea that it's only women who have the desire and obligation to care for their children, financially and practically. In an ideal world, (Sweden? My brother used to live there), each parent would have some paid parental leave to take…

It's been 100% effective for me, cheap and easy to use. They want to "phase it out" because it's cheap. I've also used a cervical cap, which was equally easy to use and cheap.

This is why I love my diaphragm.

Been rockin' a diaphragm since I was 18.

I'm pretty lazy and I hate the sun and "outside" and I'm not the best mom in the world and I'm addicted to TV, but I took my daughter to the park regularly 'cause I wanted people to like me and I thought it would tire her out. I mean, I suck and we were poor but you gotta get the kid to run around or they'll bug the…

Pregnancy makes food taste AWESOME. Also, naps feel fantastic... like you're on heroin.
