Watched this the other night, it wasn't too bad for a pilot. There were a couple of lines that really had me laughing and the main character is a nice combination of stupid/naive. I will keep watching.

I DVR'd this and watched it with the GF on Monday evening. It had gotten pretty solid reviews with
some comparing it to Sex In The City with a much younger generation cast. While I never watched much
SITC, I would have to essentially agree with the comparisons. My GF didn't really care for it in general
but we did get at least half a dozen pretty good laughs from either the situations or some of the dialogue.
I will continue to watch since I am paying for the channel and I think the show has some promise to it.

I did not know that. The attractive girl on the show is Brian Williams daughter.

torrented this for my gf, she liked it well enough. i guess the main character (also writer/producer/director?) also starred/directed/produced/etc some recent film called 'Tiny Furniture' and that there's a bit of overlap btw the film and the tv show.

Main characters bf is pretty fucking hot.

Gave it a shot.....I just couldn't get into it, the acting was good and so was the dialogue but I just couldn't make it through. The wife and I were thinking at one point it was going to end and when we checked it was only 15 minutes in....felt a lot longer.

It did get solid reviews so I may give it another go over the weekend.

Is this gonna have some nudity? If so, I might tune in when I'm on the road in one of the luxury hotels I stay in - one time I even got to stay in a Radisson.

Eh, this show seems to be more of a "Red Roof Inn" piece of kit.

I dont know that I would want any nudity except from the main character's roommate. I read some reviews that said the pilot was just OK and that the story picks up.

Saw the main character interviewed on Conan and she claimed she is the only one that gets
nude in the program...

Conan

What do you watch, Leno? I happen to like Conan, his humor isn't for everyone but I find it funny first thing
in the morning before work.

Some Letterman/Ferguson, parts of Daily Show/Colbert. bout the first half or third of each.

I think you should hit the red Exclamation Moint and report this thread to yourself to prune.

Turned it off after about 7 minutes, when someone was talking about the cast from sex in the city.

If you watch this show and you're not a woman you are by definition gay.

An HBO show where girls in New York talk about wanting to be characters from an HBO show about women in New York. Meta as fuck, huh.

fucking guys in the ass is just a stepping stone to watching this show and being full on gay.

Looks annoying. White people over exaggerating their problems? Privileged educated wannabe hipsters with no clue about real life? When I already dislike characters from teaser previews it's not a good way to start.

Back off, Warchild. Seriously.

I have read three reviews of this show that make mention of the fact that Lena Dunham uses twitter. Who gives a fuck.

_________________

It was kind of absorbing but I certainly wouldn't call it good. Someone at Pitchfork or Vice or whatever needs to explain to privileged young white people that affecting exaggeratedly pouty indignation at their banal problems doesn't come off as ironic.

That said, Allison Williams combines the best of Hope Solo and Olivia Wilde.

Shakes, I don't agree with many things you say but it is a message board so i really don't
care since I likely won't ever meet you in person. Watching this show doesn't make you
gay.... having a mind as closed as yours makes you a bit foolish.

You should know this after actually being on one of the worst reality shows of all time... and
that is really saying something after most of the crap they put on TV.
