American pop-culture and Hollywood is rotten to the core. I’m reminded of Miley Cyrus’ mom gleefully video taping her daughter simulating sex acts in front of millions of viewers.
Shows and movies that have good plots don’t need distractions.
The facts that “Girls” constantly needs to show “shocking” porn scenes is a damning indictment of the vast emptiness of the show’s plots.
What’s French for “I can’t write, therefore I distract”? That should be Lena Dunham’s new motto.
Not being familiar with any of the characters I don't know if that's a hetero or homo couple...
butt play? Are they so devoid of talent they have to resort this?
ok ok I know, just having trouble believing it.
And to think I used to get embarrassed during a commercial for feminine hygiene products if I was watching TV with my father. I guess I have so many hang-ups. /S
i turned off the tv years ago. saves me $75-100/mon.
stop supporting liberals and their progressive destruction of the country.
cut the cord
Lena Dunham is from an extremely wealthy Manhattan family. The message from the elite right now is “we don’t want to be constrained by any morality whatsoever, although we still want to retain our status as being among the elite.”
In the past, the aristocracy thought it needed to provide a moral example to the nation. They no longer feel any such need. They figure if they squawk about racism and sexism enough, they’ll make just enough of the rest of the country think they care about their interests to support policies that favor the elite.
They can try all they want to turn this into some "breaking taboos" social phenomenon, they can hope that Christians will be out protesting, but the reality is that sexual deviancy is tired, banal and in terms of shock value, has run its course. The scene isn't "shocking", its just insipid and disgusting. What's next, will they show Lena Dunham taking a s___t in the middle of the street? Will they graphically show her changing her tampon? That's about the level that this show is at.
It amuses me to see adults gush over something meaningless as if it has meaning. Especially when it involves the fakery of television. This particular TV show seems to have as its theme rounding up some piggish and ugly females and providing them a venue to play pretend in a world that is usually inhabited by the Kardashians. Where nothing has any value but the wonderment of finding value where there is none and celebrating that place where there is no oxygen as if it is a place of life. Only in contemporary America would people such as this Lena Dumham be celebrated for their ability to basically do nothing of any substance. The only real comedy here is that an a$$hole like Dunham is being celebrated for celebrating the human anus on TV which is irony in itself if one considers that most of what comes out of TV is crap.
I never heard of the show.
PROUD to say I don’t watch, HBO Brian Williams, The Girls, and don’t know anything about any of the characters or actors who play them.
I feel sorry for you if you do.
Sometimes I really miss Mr. Hayes.
I think NYPD Blue uncovered this territory a decade ago.
Pope John Paul II said we’re becoming a “Culture of Death.” I notice Billy Graham just yesterday used the same phrase. It’s this kind of stuff -— sodomy as fun for home audience viewing -— that makes us smell, to decent people around the world, like a sewer. It’s not just hyperexcited Muslims who entertain the fleeting thought that “this so-called ‘culture’ needs to be cremated.”
This is a step in the right direction, compared to Lena Dunham’s experimentation with a preschool girl and Lena Dunham’s confusion between her fantasy life and real life (rape fantasy v. claiming a real gang rape).
This must be why all of my movie channels were free this past weekend
I heard that Lena Dunham and Rosie O’Donnell are going to film their interpretation of “Two Girls, One Cup” together. /sarc
Actually, would anyone be surprised?
(Don't judge me: it was on after "Game of Thrones", titled "Girls" and on HBO, and then the father was the other guy from "Bosom Buddies" who did "Newhart" so I thought that it could be funny or something. Didn't make it to the end of that first episode. Never watched again.)
