Girls kicked ass. One of the 2010’s best shows and one of the great HBO comedies. Even when the show becomes more mixed for me (seasons 5-6), there are moments of such sheer brilliance that I can’t help but marvel at. 

This might be Adam Driver’s greatest role.

A Goodbye to Girls
Just finished my rewatch of Girls and I feel the need to talk about it. So I will.
The first time I watched this genius piece of TV I was pretty young, probably too young to fully grasp a show like this. And though I deeply enjoyed it then, there’s nothing like watching it in your early twenties.
Lena is the best to ever do it and an iconic, incredibly smart, witty, hilarious, honest woman. She’s always been ahead of her time and this show is a testament to that. Girls is the most accurate and raw portrayal of being a woman in your twenties. Of feeling like time is catching up to you, and you’re simply not ready to grow up and become whatever is expected of you.
There’s something Lena said in the Girls Rewatch Podcast that really moved me: “I had more sympathy for [woman in a movie that kills her husband] than I had for myself when I was in my early twenties.” And it’s true!!!! It’s so true!!! We try so hard to be great and grand and perfect. To be admirable and accomplished and mature. And we beat ourselves up and treat ourselves so unkindly.
You will fuck up and you will be mean to your friends and your parents and your boss. You won’t walk away with grace after a breakup or a fight with a friend or an argument with your mom. You will lie and pretend and talk shit about someone you actually really like. You will feel lost and aimless and like a failure. You will also feel really inspired at times and passionate and full of creativity. And then you’ll lose that spark, and the cycle will start all over again. And that’s okay. It’s actually not only okay but what you should be doing and how you should be feeling and how you should be acting.
Everything will work out and everything will feel okay. But for now, give yourself credit for trying and allow yourself to fuck up, because you will anyway, so you might as well go through those fuck-ups with a little more patience.
Thank you Girls for changing my life and thank you Lena for being the voice of our generation. No pun intended.
