I think about this scene sm Jessa dropping wisdom like gold
I can’t wait for her to be back as a lesbian dating a super famous celebrity chef or sum AGHHHH

This is amazing news!! Girls returning for 5 eps

...

Is Jessa just going to be a corpse in an opening funeral scene?

Did Grover get permanently dropped off with Loreen before his 1st birthday?

Is Shosh texting pandas, next to guns, next to a wrapped gift emojis to girls with pretty purses? 🐼 🔫 🎁

Is Marnie a lawyer?

How did I miss this the first go round? This dramatic fight over this tiny shelf could have been about anything and it would have been the same dynamic. I do realize that.

But Allison Williams has to be fighting for her life in this scene. The ridiculousness of 1. Her being mad over a shelf that could have just as easily been cut off. 2. Desi walking to the Ray Bradbury collection like he had this specific book set in mind. 3. Then it actually does fit perfectly. 4. Then the outburst when he declares the digest shelf is all he has.

I've never laughed so hard at this show. So I somehow missed it the first time. Desi was so funny. Peak acting. Idk what award you'd get for this but please someone give it to him.

i hope the new 5 episodes will ACTUALLY focus on the Girls. And not on Ray or Desi or Adam. they can have small cameos or small parts but we deserve a proper focus on Hanna, Marnie, Jessa and Shosh

*****spoilers****

omg i can't believe girls is coming back!! i just watched the series a few weeks ago and i can't believe we're getting 5 more episodes!!

so far we don't see anything about adam driver tho.... any thoughts? what do you think it will happen between him and jessa?

Asking for a friend…

Can we, the fanbase, collectively agree that if Laird is not in S7, we refuse to watch on principle?

Stoked that they’re coming out with new episodes!!

What’re some of your predictions on the storylines?

I’m half expecting they open at Adam’s funeral or something. Especially given the things Lena said in her recent memoir..

Do you think Jessa invited Adam to lunch with her and her sister specifically so he would overhear that she needed money to become a therapist? Seems like an odd conversation to have in front of him. Or was it just a coincidence? (Season 5, Episode 5)

The news have got me thinking.. even though Lena had the idea to bring back Girls due to her own fourtieth birthday, Hannah won't be 40 in the new episodes since it's supposed to be 10 years after the finale and she hadn't yet turned thirty by the last episode, right? I recently did a rewatch of the whole show and my understanding was they were supposed to be around 28 (except for Shosh)

Here are mine:

Shoshanna, when saying her last name, will now use the normal pronunciation.

Jemma will run a rehab, or work with addicts in some way... but it's unconventional.

Adam is a famous movie star but no one in the group gives two shits.

I personally really love whenever Shosh and Adam interact. It only happens a few times in the series but I think their energies really complement each other in a way that suits the show so well and I laugh every time !

I wonder what they did on FaceTime for the best part of an hour

I never rewatch shows, but here I am, in my late 40s, sucked back into Girls as if it were the first time.

I read Famesick recently and decided to go back and watch one episode. I’m now middle of Season 2. Is it possible that this show is even better the second time around?

The humor, cadence, quality of the characters, psychological intrigue, and cinematic charm is so good. This show is and always was brilliant.

The side part is a bit much, but I love her styling and makeup in the last season.

Did she not damn near assult ray and Groom's children?

I've heard a few friends casually mention how they either love the show or are considering a rewatch. I've never seen it but after all the news lately, I'm strongly considering. I'm not a girl so I just didnt understand the concept but I realize I literally judged the show off of surface level aspects. For folks who have seen the entire series, whats your favorite thing about the show? Does a new watcher have to finish the og series to get the reboot?

If Girls was made as an animated show and all the characters were animals, which animals would they be? This is just for fun!

My thoughts:
Hannah - a calico cat who always knocks stuff off the table
Marnie - golden labradoodle
Jessa - raccoon
Shoshanna - squirrel
Elijah - alpaca llama
Adam - ferret
Ray - rhino
Desi - chameleon
Loreen - kangaroo
Tad - seahorse
Fran - bat
Charlie - crow
Laird - elephant
