    Default 'Girls' on HBO

    It's got quite a bit of critical acclaim.

    Worth watching? I've heard it's raunchy. Any of the cast members look sexy while getting plowed?

    Jemima Kirke is goodlooking.

    Shame that she isn't the one getting naked most of the time.

    I find 'Sex and the City' to be an addictive watch and have seen comparisons drawn between the two, but it sounds like S&TC has richer and more dynamic characters.

    it sucks so bad. I checked it out cus the chick who wrote it got compared to woody allen but its like a hipster bullshit version of sex and the city starring a fat ugly chick who gets her t*ts out every 5 minutes.

    You cannot go into something expecting Woody Allen and then come out and say it's Hipster BS. You just can't.
    woody allen is a genius, GOAT American filmmaker.

    Woody Allen isn't hipster bullshit.

    How many episodes did you watch before you gave up on it?

    Its a show that was made for women.

    It has very little appeal for men. None of the women that get naked are attractive.

    Jean-Luc Godard is the granddaddy of all hipsters. And, I don't say that derogatorily. His style was years ahead of its time and definitely fresh. All of today's "hipsters" who attempt to emulate his films' iconic wardrobes and mode of expression fail miserably.

    S&TC was made for women and has an even less attractive cast overall when pitted against 'Girls'.

    Good writing and competent, artful filmmaking should have appeal for both men and women.

    I've watched it mostly because it's been on in a sequence of shows I actually watch. But it's still had a few moments. Even when it's not good it can be weirdly interesting.

    NBC Newsman Brian Williams is hot. But she was horribly unlikable, then jumped to sympathetic. Shoshanna is too weird. The hippie chick is too weird. The crazy boyfriend Adam had a few moments, but overall is too weird. And the hot girls boyfriend is too pathetic even by my account. The only character I like is the miserable Ray.

    But it has had moments. Watching Adam's warped sexuality is like rubber necking a car accident.
